Predecease means you die before them, which would mean they get the money as you wished. If they die before you, the secondary beneficiary gets the money. It may revert to your estate at that point if no one is named. Your policy should have the specific clauses as to what and how succession happens.

How do you find life insurance policy with social security number?

The only way to find a person or deceased Life Insurance policy with a Social Security number is to know the name of the company that issued the policy. With that information, the beneficiary can contact the Life Insurance company and search his policy with his Social Security number. Please keep in mind that if you do not have a signed sealed death certificate the policy benefits will not be issued. Also, the death benefit will only be issued to the person named as the beneficiary. So if someone else besides the named beneficiary on the policy tries to receive the benefits, it would be impossible.

What are the taxes on cash surrender of insurance?

How much is the surrender value compared to the premiums paid in? Generally speaking, there is no tax on the cash surrender value of a life ins. policy. This is because the (guaranteed) cash surrender value (GSV) represents the "legal reserve" required by law. So, for instance, if a person is insured for $100k, and the policy has a GSV of $10k, when the insured person dies (assuming no policy loans, etc.) the death benefit of $ 100k is paid to the named beneficiary: $ 90k of the insurance company's $'s, and $ 10k of the insured's $'s. Had the insured taked a policy loan of $10k, then the death benefit would be only the $ 90k. Hope this helps.
