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.

If I surrender a universal life insurance policy what happens?
If you surrender it you are in effect canceling the policy. They will issue you a check for the cash value in the insurance and you will no longer have the protection. Alternatives? Maybe take a loan on the cash value which you would have to pay back. If you are over 52 you should look into selling the policy as you will get more than the cash value. I can help you with that. In any case I caution you on losing a policy like this, consider carefully. 4LifeGuild

How do you determine the value of an old burial insurance policy from Southern Bankers Insurance Company?
You could submit a claim but that usually means dying first. Short of dying, you could surrender the policy for its surrender value. The surrender value depends on many things but it starts a zero when the policy is bought and grows to the face amount as the policy ages. The hardcopy of the policy should show a face amount but will likely also include a schedule for the surrender value. If the hardcopy of the policy can't be located, a call to the company is in order.

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.
