Three products people mix up
Accelerated / instant term: full underwriting in the background, no fluids if you pass the algorithm. Simplified issue: questions, higher price per thousand, lower faces. Guaranteed issue: almost no questions, small faces, two-year wait for natural death on many forms.
What kicks you out of the fast lane
Amount too high, age, build, driving record, recent doctor visits, foreign travel, cannabis answers that do not match the database. Then you get labs anyway — or a decline. Answer the application like a recorded statement.
Price vs. speed
A fully underwritten 20-year term is often cheaper per thousand than simplified issue. Speed is worth it when a closing or a court deadline exists. It is not worth a lifetime of extra premium for a healthy 34-year-old in Palmetto Bay.
