The U.S. Navy has announced that Servicemember's Group Life Insurance (SGLI) is now available online for Sailors to verify, update and change their insurance coverage amount and beneficiaries. To view or change information, Sailors may access SOES through My Navy Portal, by choosing the milConnect tab and logging into milConnect system. Once logged into milConnect, Sailors select the "SOES" option under the "Benefits" tab and follow the prompts. Users may access milConnect with a Common Access Card (CAC), DFAS (myPay) account, or DS LOGON account. The paper form will still be accepted if a change to beneficiaries must be made and the Sailor has no access to Internet. For more information, visit the milConnect website.
