What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NJ
My father had an annuity set for the primary beneficiary to be my mother. This annuity would become completely available to her in the next couple of years. She receives SSDI and is now living in a section 8 apt. because of her income. Anyone that knows anything about HUD understands that they count all assets you may have. On top of any money she may receive from selling the home she owns being counted as an asset, we also have the annuity. We decided that maybe we should switch her out of being primary beneficiary to my self being the primary, so she doesn't have that annuity tied to her name anymore. Can beneficiaries be changed after switching annuities from one company to another? For example, from Prudential to MetLife. The last set of paperwork is not yet completed, so can we switch? As of now, she is primary, i am secondary, then to my son. Please advise...What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
