      Re: First Investors Single Payment and
          Periodic Payment Plans for Investment in
          First Investors Government Fund, Inc.

Gentlemen:

      You have informed me that, in accordance with Rule 24f-2 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), First Investors
Corporation ("FIC") as sponsor-depositor of Single Payment and Periodic
Payment Plans for Investment in First Investors Government Fund, Inc. (the
"Plans"), intends to file a Rule 24f-2 Notice with the United States
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), setting forth, among other
things, that during the period beginning January 1, 1995 and ending December
31, 1995, the Plans' most recently ended fiscal year, the Plans, having
elected to register an indefinite amount of face value of Plans, sold
$231,589 in face amount of Plans under Rule 24f-2 and making definite the
amount of Plans registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act")
and pursuant to such Rule for such period.  You have also informed me that
all the Plans were issued in accordance with the provisions relating thereto
in the registration statement filed by FIC as sponsor-depositor of the Plans
under the 1933 Act.

      I have reviewed the Certificate of Incorporation of FIC, its By-laws
and registration statements it has filed with the SEC on behalf of and
relating to the Plans under the 1940 Act and the 1933 Act and such minutes of
the corporate proceedings and other documents as I deem material to my
opinion.

      Based on the foregoing, I am of the opinion that all of the $231,589
in face amount of Plans described in the Rule 24f-2 Notice as having been
sold under such Rule during the period beginning January 1, 1995 and ending
December 31, 1995, the end of the Plans' most recently ended fiscal year,
were fully-paid, non-assessable and legally issued Plans sponsored by FIC for
investment in shares of First Investors Government Fund, Inc.

      This opinion letter is governed by, and shall be interpreted in
accordance with, the Legal Opinion Accord of the ABA Section of Business Law
(1991).  The law covered by the opinions expressed herein is limited to the
Federal law of the United States and the law of the State of New York.

      I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the SEC as an
exhibit or accompaniment to the aforementioned Rule 24f-2 Notice and as an
exhibit to the Plans' Post-Effective Amendment to the Registration Statement
filed on its behalf by FIC under the 1933 Act.  I also consent to the filing
of this opinion with the securities regulatory agencies of any states or
other jurisdiction in which the Plans are offered for sale.

                                        Very truly yours,


                                        /s/Robert J. Grosso

                                        Robert J. Grosso
