You can choose who receives it and it can be divided between people, for example your children. <br /><br />Ask for a booklet so you can review what benefits are in place in the event of death.<br /><br />With mine, it's 3 x my final salary that goes into my estate. Rab also gets a (reduced) pension from them. Don't cancel *anything* until you find out what the DIS benefits are is my advice.<br /><br />xxCarolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11470170206537639792noreply@blogger.com
