Production Qualification for Life Insurance and Annuities Category

Eligibility for the NAIFA Quality Award in the Life Insurance and Annuities category is based on policy persistency. The persistency requirements are based on a sliding scale depending upon the number of qualifying policies you sold in 2022 and renewed in 2023.

If you do not meet the qualifying levels of production outlined below, it is possible to earn bonus credit for your qualifying production in other practice specialty categories, professional education and NAIFA service. See the Multiplier Bonus section below.
