Risks [Table Text Block]
RISKS
  
CROSS-REFERENCE(S)
Is There a Risk of Loss from Poor Performance?    Yes. You can lose money by investing in the policy.    Principal Risks of Investing in the Policy
Is this a Short-Term Investment?    No. A policy is not a short-term investment and is not appropriate for an investor who needs ready access to cash. It is designed for individuals seeking long-term investments, generally for retirement or other long-term purposes. Amounts withdrawn from the policy may result in surrender charges, taxes, and tax penalties.    Principal Risks of Investing in the Policy
What Are the Risks Associated with the Investment Options?    An investment in the policy is subject to the risk of poor investment performance and can vary depending on the performance of the investment option(s) available under the policy (e.g., Portfolio Companies), if more than one investment option is made available in the future. Each investment option(s) (including any fixed account investment option) will have its own unique risks, and you should review the investment option(s) before making an investment decision.    Principal Risks of Investing in the Policy
What Are the Risks Related to the Insurance Company?    An investment in the policy is subject to the risks related to American Fidelity Assurance Company, including that any obligations (including under any fixed account investment options), guarantees, or benefits are subject to the claims-paying ability of American Fidelity Assurance Company. More information about American Fidelity Assurance Company, including financial strength ratings, is available by sending an email request to va.help@americanfidelity.com.    Principal Risks of Investing in the Policy
Investment Restrictions [Text Block] Yes. Money invested in the policy is invested exclusively in the Vanguard® VIF Total Stock Market Index Portfolio, which is currently the only investment option. We cannot guarantee that Vanguard® VIF Total Stock Market Index Portfolio will always be available for our variable annuity products. If it should not be available, we will try to replace it with a comparable fund. We reserve the right to substitute Portfolio Companies as investment options.
Key Information, Benefit Restrictions [Text Block] Yes. We reserve the right to modify, limit, or terminate certain benefits available under the policy.
Tax Implications [Text Block] You should consult with a tax professional to determine the tax implications of an investment in and purchase payments received under the policy. There is no additional tax benefit to you if the policy is purchased through a tax‑qualified plan or individual retirement account (IRA). Withdrawals will be subject to ordinary income tax and may be subject to tax penalties.
Investment Professional Compensation [Text Block] The policy is sold exclusively through investment professionals who are representatives of American Fidelity Assurance Company’s affiliated broker dealer and who are compensated for selling the policy to investors with a base salary and a commission. These investment professionals may have a financial incentive to offer the policy over another investment.
Exchanges [Text Block] Some investment professionals may have a financial incentive to offer you a new contract in place of the one you already own. You should only exchange your policy if you determine, after comparing other features, fees, and risks of both contracts, that it is preferable for you to purchase the new contract rather than continue to own the existing policy.

*
Not applicable after age 65.
Death Benefit
In the event of a participant’s death before receipt of annuity payments, death proceeds are payable to the person’s named beneficiary in an amount equal to:
  •  
the value of the participant’s account as of the valuation date (the date on which we have received both written notice of death and the beneficiary’s written instructions), or
  •  
if greater, and if the participant’s death occurs before age 65, 100% of the total purchase payments made by the participant, less any redemptions.
Payments normally are made within seven calendar days of receipt of notice.
If a participant dies during the annuity period, we will pay any remaining guaranteed payments to:
  •  
the participant’s beneficiary, or
  •  
the participant’s estate, if no beneficiary survives.
Any payments made to a beneficiary must be made on a payment schedule at least as rapid as that made to the participant.
A beneficiary who is the spouse of a deceased participant may choose to receive the death benefit in any form that the participant could have chosen to receive annuity payments. Federal tax law requires that annuity contracts issued after January 18, 1985 restrict the length of time over which non‑spouse beneficiaries may elect to receive death benefit proceeds. Contracts issued after January 18, 1985 provide that non‑spouse beneficiaries must either:
  •  
take a total distribution within five years of the death of the participant, or
  •  
by the end of the year following the participant’s death, begin receiving payments for a period not to exceed the expected lifetime of the beneficiary.
