What affects your guaranteed income quote
If your goal is dependable income in retirement, not all annuities are the same. Some are built to start income soon. Others are designed to let you wait and turn income on later. The amount you may receive can change based on these factors.
Your age
Income payouts often change based on the age when payments begin.
Single vs. joint life
Income for one person usually quotes differently than income built to last for both spouses.
When you start income
Some products can provide larger future income when payments are deferred.
Your state
Some annuities, riders, and features are not available in every state.
Income design
Payout options such as life only, joint life, or other guarantees can change the quote.

David and Susan wanted more certainty
David, 67, and Susan, 65, were nearing full retirement and wanted to know how much dependable income they could create from a portion of their savings. Their biggest question was whether it made more sense to quote income for David alone or choose joint lifetime income that could continue for both of them.
By comparing their options side by side, they could focus on the annuities built to provide the kind of guaranteed income they were looking for.
Best for
Couples deciding between single-life and joint-life income, or weighing income now versus a few years out.
Before choosing an income annuity, compare the details
The highest starting income is not always the only thing that matters. Some options are designed to maximize income right away; others offer different tradeoffs, such as deferral flexibility, optional rider features, or choices about how income is paid. It is also important to understand whether a quote is based on lifetime income for one life or two, and whether the product's income benefit is different from the contract's cash value. Questions worth asking:
- Is this quote for single life or joint life?
- When does income begin?
- Is there an optional rider cost?
- Is the income figure based on a benefit base or actual account value?
- Is the product available in my state?

Income figures are benchmark estimates for comparison and are not quotes or guarantees. Actual income depends on age, single or joint life, product, rider election, and timing, and varies by state. All guarantees are backed by the claims-paying ability of the issuing insurance company. This is educational information, not a recommendation.
