 An important step in your retirement planning includes helping to ensure financial stability for your loved ones.  And you can do that quickly and easily by selecting a beneficiary for your plan.  While life itself may be filled with uncertainties, you don't want any uncertainty about who will receive the benefit of the savings you've worked hard to accumulate.  

You may be able to update your beneficiary in a few simple steps by logging in to your plan's website:

• Click the "Beneficiary" link under the My Profile icon
• Review current beneficiary information and click "Update Beneficiary," if needed
• Click "Change Beneficiaries"
• Fill in the the information about your new beneficiary and then click "Submit Changes"  (Please note:  You will need a Social Security number, birth date, and mailing address for each new beneficiary.)
• After verifying the information is correct, click "Continue"
• You will receive a Beneficiary Change Confirmation message -- please print the confirmation screen for your records
