- MassMutual’s Survivorship Whole Life and CareChoice products are not eligible.
- Available for face amounts up to and including $1 million.
- All five standard or better classes are available:

- Available riders include Life Insurance Supplement Rider (LISR), Additional Life Insurance Rider (ALIR), Guaranteed Insurability Rider (GIR), Renewable Term Rider (RTR), and Waiver of Premium Rider (WP). o The Long Term Care Access Rider (LTCR) is not eligible
Key considerations
- If you are looking for a fluidless underwriting opportunity for your client, it is important not to order labs until an application is received and reviewed by MassMutual.
- Submitting labs for applicants who receive a fluidless offer will not result in a more favorable offer.
- Fluidless offers are not transferable to other policies and are not available for reconsideration
