American Benefit Life (ABL) and SuranceBay worked together to make submitting contracting paperwork even easier.  Effective Friday, August 27, 2021, ALL request types will be submitted directly to American Benefit Life after being processed in SureLC.  ABL requires the integration for all SureLC submissions in order to streamline their onboarding process and prevent any delays in processing requests.

 

ALL Requests Uploaded Electronically

When you process any type of request through SureLC, you'll receive the merged.pdf form in your inbox as you normally do.  However, there will now be a watermark on the PDF forms that indicate the forms have been electronically submitted to the carrier.

Contracting paperwork is submitted electronically every 5-10 minutes directly to ABL.  So, upon follow-up with the carrier they should have everything to process the request shortly after you've submitted it.

This means that you should NOT forward the paperwork (email, fax, snail mail, etc.) to the carrier - they'll receive it directly from SureLC™ and they will process the request accordingly.  This is designed to streamline the process for both your agency, your producers, and ABL to provide a quicker turn-around and more secure process for everyone involved.

⚠️ ALERT: ALL requests for a producer will be submitted electronically, including the initial and any subsequent requests. ABL does not accept any requests via email.
