Can a claim on your dead husbands estate also include life insurance to spouse?

If the life insurance policy had listed as the beneficiary the spouse only then it is not considered part of the estate and is not subject to claims. If the beneficiary is the estate then it is subject to claims. The only problem with the spouse being the only beneficiary is if she was a party to the claims personally then perhaps she and the proceeds from the life insurance could be subject to these claims.

Where do life insurance companies invest their money?

Life insurers, like other insurers, are presently regulated by the state insurance regulator(s) of the state(s) in which they conduct business. One of the primary functions of state insurance regulators is to ensure the solvency (claims paying ability) of the insurers. Life insurers are restricted by state insurance regulators as to the investment vehicles that they may use. By and large, permissible investments are very conservative and nonvolatile, and are defined by state statute.

How many months can a life insurance company take to pay the beneficiary?

Great question! Most state laws require the insurance company to pay a claim within 30 to 90 days, however there are caveats. The caveat is "unless more time is required". This, of course, allows an insurer to delay as long as they want. If you have a claim that is being delayed I recommend you contact the Center for Life Insurance Disputes. They help people with delayed and denied life insurance claims.
