@cpa2011

If your living in the US get legally married. Even though you have her as a beneficiary, you are going to cause her multiple problems.

1. Tax purposes, If your filing as "married filing Jointly, currently its fraud as you know your not actually married.
2. Transfers of property between spouses is not taxable, if you passaway, since your not married, all the property that will be giving to her will be subject to taxes after the gift tax.
3. Godforbid, you in a coma, or whatever health condition, she wont have rights to your health choices (like being on lifesupport)

great points
