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.
Anything you pull out above and beyond your base, is taxable. Base is the money you have put into it, your premiums that you paid.
If you take a loan against the policy, the amount you receive is not considered taxable. However, if you later surrender (cash-in) the policy, the amount you received in the loan and in the surrender will then be considered taxable income.
Since you paid it with after tax $$$ any money you receive would not be taxable, UNTIL it's more than what you paid into it. In that case, it might be better to take loans.
The value accrued at the time of surrender of the policy is called cash surrender value of the policy. Generally, before completion of three year period, no life policy can be surredered and hence question of cash surrender values does not arise.
That depends on whether or not you wish to continue having the life insurance in force at the insured's death. If you wish to have the life insurance in force at death, then it is best to borrow some of the cash value. If you surrender the policy, then you receive all the remaining cash value (less any surrender charges), but the death benefit is no longer there. Also the cash value received MAY be taxable.
You will receive the cash value minus the surrender charges, not the face value of the policy.

You can contact the life insurance policy and request the necessary forms that you will need to fill out and send back to the insurance company in order to surrender the policy. You may want to ask how much the cash value is that you will receive from the policy upon surrendering the coverage.

It means you want to cancel the policy. If there is cash value in the policy, surrender charges will be deducted from the cash value and you will get the remaining balance.
Once the company receives your signed surrender form it should take 7 to 10 business days to receive a check.
The insurance policy surrender charges vary from policy to policy. While surrender charges against ulip policies are much on the higher side, whereas the same is low in endowment policies. You can visit the Insurance Company's webiste for a glimpse of the various charges.
There is generally not a special form used for a life insurance policy issued to a physician. That said, if you are concerned with the cash surrender value, a whole life insurance policy (rather than a term life insurance policy) is implicated. The cash surrender value changes (usually increases) as the policy matures. The amount of the cash surrender value is shown on a schedule on the declarations page of the policy. The declarations page is one of the first pages of the policy which identifies the insured, the policy number, the amount of policy benefits and other information.
