Probate - Insurance policies Question

This is the last section I need to fill in... 
My parents both passed within 10 days of each other earlier on in the year, Mam first then Dad. We just received 3 Insurance cheques, 2 for Mams policies and the other for Dad.
"Policies that are paying out to..."
Do I only need to list the one in Dads name or all 3?

    Were the policies written under trust? If so, they may not need to be included at all.
    Googling on your question might have been both quicker and easier, if you're only after simple facts rather than opinions!

    No, I don't think they were.
