VA amends and clarifies implementation of section 642 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2013 (NDAA), which eliminated automatic Family Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (FSGLI) for insurable dependents who are members of a uniformed service and are automatically covered under Servicemembers' Group Life Insurance (SGLI). VA proposes that a SGLI-eligible member who: (1) marries another SGLI-eligible member after January 1, 2013, the date on which the NDAA was enacted; or who (2) is married to a person who becomes eligible for SGLI, after January 1, 2013, may only enroll or re-enroll in FSGLI-spousal coverage upon applying for such coverage and providing proof of his or her spouse's good health.
