  • Relevant premium and policy records
  • Nominee or legal-heir details where applicable
  • Any event-specific certificate or form requested by PLI

Before submission

Check the latest official PLI claim form and instructions. Ask the relevant PLI office whether originals, copies or attestations are required.
