Define your question better.
Think person's question is self explanatory: Evidently they have an "universal life"
style policy and they want to cash it in for the "cash value"
You first have to submit the correct forms for your Insurance company and might have to get it notorized if you do not have original paperwork: once the paper work is RECEIVED
by them it should take 7-10 days for them to process it. and add a couple days for check to get sent to you: I would ask the individual insurance company as some companies
only send them out the 1st and 15th and say it is due to the interest being credited at
those dates.
Not long. As long as all requirements are met the claim should be paid in a mere matter of weeks if not days. Get your agent after it. That is what he is there for. 4lifeguild.com
About two weeks but be careful that you fill out everything correctly and sign correctly. If it's not right they will have to send it back.
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.
Life insurance death benefits are paid out tax-free as long as your premiums were paid with after-tax money. If you have a cash value life insurance policy and surrender the policy, you may be subject to a taxable gain if the total cash value exceeds the cost basis of the policy.
What do you mean "Sell" the life insurance policy? Once it is back in force and you are the owner, you can cash it in at any time if there is in fact a cash value. I guess you would have to better define what you mean by selling it.
A universal life insurance policy is a cash value type of life insurance policy. With universal life insurance, you policy may build up cash values over time, similar to a whole life policy, but typically less expensive than whole life insurance. Another feature of some universal life insurance policies is called a "no lapse guarantee" With this feature, as long as you pay your premiums, the policy is guaranteed to last to age 100 and beyond depending on the specific carrier you choose. Compare this to a whole life insurance policy where the premium requirements may vary and depend on how dividends and interest rates perform.

Yes as long as he is the owner of the policy...he can do whatever he wishes.
Term life insurance is temporary coverage that lasts for a specific number of years, usually 10, 15, 20, or 30 years. If you outlive the term of the policy, the life insurance expires. Term life does not build cash value within the policy. It is not an investment, but pure protection. Whole life insurance is permanent life insurance for your entire lifetime, as long as you pay the premiums. It builds cash value within the policy. You may be able to take a loan out from the cash that builds inside the policy.
Of the various types of life insurance that exist, "term" life insurance is not permanent. This is because it remains in force only as long as premiums are paid. In contrast, "whole life insurance" is frequently also referred to as "permanent insurance" That is because it accumulates cash value, which is sort of a saving account built into the policy. Therefore, once cash value reached a certain amount, in theory, no further premiums have to be paid because the policy can be maintained based upon the cash value.
If you do that you might have to spend a long vacation in the County Castle or a life vacation in the Amazon.
Pure term life insurance. In this kind of policy, there is no cash value of the policy for the insured. The policy holder gets no tangible or monetary benefits as long as he/she is alive. Only the survivors of the insured can reap the benefits of this kind of policy. So, we can say that this type of policy has no cash value for the insured individual.
Yes, you can turn in the policy and receive the cash value. However, the amount of money you receive will depend upon your age, how long you have had your insurance and the policy's benefit amount.
Some types of life insurance develop cash value; these are called whole life policies. Term insurance has no cash value. So it depends upon the kind of life insurance you have, and it may also depend upon how long you have been paying premiums.
