There are a number of different reasons premiums for life insurance may drop over time. The premium for a life insurance policy is the amount you pay in return for the life insurance coverage on your life. The insurance company promises to pay out a death benefit to your beneficiary of you die, in return for your premiums you pay on your life insurance policy. Premiums are based on several factors, including your age, health, occupation, hobbies, lifestyle, if you smoke, driving record, credit history, height-to-weight ratio, etc. In addition, the type and amount of life insurance will have an affect on how much you pay for life insurance. What can lower life insurance premiums? Life insurance companies may lower their premiums over time if they have fewer claims, more people cancel their life insurance plans before dying, or people live for a longer period of time
The premiums will vary depending on your age and other factors. I would speak with an insurance professional.

No. Also, it is probably not a good idea to try and deduct the premiums for diability or life insurance because if you deduct the premiums or if the employer pays the premiums then any benefits are then taxable. You certainly would not want to have to pay income tax on a large life insurance benefit just because you wanted to deduct a few hundred dollars of insurance premiums.
