Re: Transamerica Occidental's Separate Account Fund B
(File Nos. 2-34221 and 811-1902)
Dear Commissioners:
On behalf of Transamerica Occidental's Separate Account Fund B (the "Fund"), we
are filing a certification pursuant to paragraph (j) of Rule 497 under the
Securities Act of 1933. In this regard, we certify that the form of Prospectus
and Statement of Additional Information ("SAI") for certain contracts offered by
the Company through the Fund otherwise required to be filed under paragraph (c)
of Rule 497 does not differ from the form of Prospectus and SAI contained in the
Form N-3 registration statement for the Fund (the "Registration Statement"),
which was filed electronically with the Securities and Exchange Commission April
29, 1998, via EDGARLINK.
Sincerely,
Regina M. Fink
Counsel
