The short story is that we CAN write cryonics approved life insurance for most non-US citizens...but there are some pretty serious requirements. These are identified clearly on our website at rudihoffman.com., but I'll summarize them here. The "biggie" is that the client must come to the US to provide blood and urine. This is why, of the few dozen non US clients we have, the process sometimes took three YEARS from start to finish. And, quite frankly, is very labor intensive on our part...and the clients. And, the policy must be permanent type policy, building a cash value, and for at least $200,000, paid annually. Mostly, the client must be highly motivated and computer literate to handle the multiple details that emerge in any transaction. So, the bottom line is that we can serve non US clients...but under some rather stringent requirements. No one ever said having a chance to preserve your precious brain pattern was supposed to be easy. Anyway, I thought it may be helpful for at least a few readers of this list to have the hard data on this matter.
