Understanding the intricacies of managing assets and designations within insurance or annuity certificates can be complex, especially when it involves the rights and consent of spouses. The Catholic Family Fraternal of Texas-K.J.Z.T.'s Spousal Consent Form, known as Cfft 43, plays a crucial role in clarifying and formalizing the consent between spouses regarding beneficiary designations. This form becomes necessary when a certificate owner wishes to name someone other than their spouse as the primary beneficiary of their insurance or annuity certificate. It includes specific sections for certificate information, the acknowledgment of spousal existence, and crucially, the spousal consent section. The latter is a declaration by the non-owner spouse, acknowledging that they have reviewed the beneficiary designation and consent to any contributions of money or property being used for the purchase of accounts in the spouse's name. Furthermore, by signing this form, the consenting spouse acknowledges relinquishing any statutory or other rights to the benefits, essentially waiving their right to benefit from these assets should they outlive their spouse. With space provided for the signatures of the certificate owner, the owner’s spouse, and a witness—either a K.J.Z.T. representative or notary public—the Cfft 43 form ensures a legal and formal acknowledgment of these terms, safeguarding the interests of all parties involved.
