An annuity for a minor child is paid
to the legal guardian, or, if there is no legal guardian, to the
natural parent who has care, custody, and control of the child as
the custodian, or to a representative payee of the child. An
annuity may be paid directly to the child when the child is
considered to be of majority age under the law in the state of
residence. The child then is considered an adult for annuity
purposes and a custodian or legal fiduciary is not
required.
