Not if you purchased the coverage while you were healthy.
I have a whole life insurance policy, how long does it take to cancel it, also can I get money back from it.
Yes, you can. Call the life insurance company and cancel the policy.
This will depend on some factors. Who is the policy-owner? The policy-owner is the only person who can cancel the insurance policy,
Yes. Term insurance is like renting insurance.
No. If you had life insurance before you got divorce, you can cancel the policy.
Yes if you made a false statement to them when taking out the policy.
What kind of insurance? Life? Yes, you can simply stop paying. If it is a cash value policy you can surrender it.
No, you are not obligated. You can cancel your life insurance policy at any time. Usually, there is a "Free Look" Period for life insurance that lasts anywhere from 10-30 days where you can return your life insurance policy to the insurer and get a full refund of premiums paid. Review your life insurance policy and ask your agent, or insurer, about this option before canceling your life insurance policy.
It depends on who is the owner of the policy. The policy owner has complete control of the policy once issued. If you are the owner you can cancel it or just change the beneficiary if you want. If she is the owner forget it. You have no say so on the policy.
Look inside your life insurance policy contract. There should be a provisions section that explains what is required of you in order to cancel your life insurance policy. Usually, you must send a written request signed and dated including your name, name of the insured, the policy number and the date the cancellation should take effect. This written request should be sent to the insurance company listed on the front page of your life insurance policy. If you have any questions, you can contact your life insurance company by phone or call your life insurance agent. Finally, the failure to pay one or more premiums will result in the termination of coverage. If it is a term life insurance policy, the termination of coverage will occur quickly. If it is a whole life insurance policy that has accumulated cash value, unless you take affirmative steps to cancel it (as explained above), the premiums may be paid from the cash value until it is exhausted.
"Insurance and Taxes. No. All proceeds or withdrawals from any insurance policy are not taxable." This is not true. If you cancel a life insurance policy, the growth on the cash value IS TAXABLE. If you do not surrender your policy, the money is taken as a loan and therefore not taxable, but interest that has to be paid back to the insurance company grows.
No. If the insurance can find proof that you were already having Cancer at the time when the policy was taken and you deliberately hid the information, they can cancel your policy. Most insurance policies do not cover pre-existing illnesses. However, if the disease was genuinely diagnosed only after the policy was in force, then they cannot cancel it.
