How do you obtain money from life insurance policy?

There are 2 possible ways to obtain money from a life insurance policy: 1) If you own a cash value policy and you've built up a positive cash value, it's possible that your life insurance company will lend you money at a low interest rate using the cash value account as collateral. 2) If you are very sick and can't afford to pay your premiums any more, it's possible to sell your policy for cash, which is called a "life settlement" or borrow on it from a bank, but be prepared to show that you only have years to live.

Can you collect cash from your life insurance?

If your policy has a cash value associated with it you can get money for surrendering the policy. Term Life has no cash value, but a whole life or universal life policy may have a cash value in it. That depends on what type of policy it is, how long it has been in force, and assuming the payments have been made.


If you cash in a universal life policy do you receive the Net Policy Value or Net Cash Surrender Value?

Typically it is called "Net Cash Surrender Value". This is the amount of cash value in the policy accumulation account minus any outstanding loans etc. But it is typically referred to as "Net surrender Value" or "Net Cash Surrender Value". Get a good agent and he can explain.

What is cash value for a policy?

Cash value is a savings element of whole life insurance. It is independent of the benefit amount and its growth is based on how much you have paid into the policy. You can access this money in the form of a loan while still keeping the policy, or if you were to cancel the policy you would receive a check for the cash value. If you would like to know how much cash value is in your policy you can call your ins. company or check the "schedule page" of your policy where there is usually a breakdown of how cash value will accumulate over time (depending on the type of policy). It usually takes several years for cash value to begin accumulating on an average adult policy.
