What should I put in here?

I have been accepted for a mortgage and got quite a hard sell when I went to see our finincial advisor (he was very arrogant) and he told me what was available.

Anyway I came home and found info about Cavendish and I am trying to get a quote for Family Income Benefit but not sure about what to put in the following fields.

Annual Benefit (£). Is this what I want to get back on an annual basis if I do require to claim?

Term in years
. The FA gave us a quote and based this for the next 16yrs, our mortgage runs for 22yrs. What should i put?

Increasing benefit. Yes or no? Does this mean I get more money over the years?

Waiver of premium. Yes or no?

Sorry if I seem stupid but I havent done this before!!

    I would speak to a less-arrogant IFA who will point you in the right direction and hopefully leave you in a better position.

    Its difficult to advise on here without all the info - and that is the job of an IFA.
