If your policy is a term insurance plan, nothing happens. The coverage ends when you stop paying and there's no further benefits. It's similar to auto insurance.

If your policy is a permanent plan with cash value, there may be income tax ramifications. If your cash in the plan grew, you may receive a form 1099 from the insurance company indicating a taxable gain. This growth in your cash value may not have been reportable income if the policy hadn't lapsed. If your policy expires before you do, there is no death benefit payable to the beneficiaries of the lapsed contract.

If you predecease the person you named on your policy who will benefit when you die?

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.


What should I know before buying affordable life insurance?

Read ALL of the fine print. Check to see how long the policy lasts and if there are any conditions that would allow the insurance company to not have to pay out the money if you were to die. Make sure you also check to see if you can renew your policy after it expires or if you get money back if you are still alive at the end of the policy.

Can you explain how term life insurance works in simple terms?

Term life insurance is a type of insurance that provides coverage for a specific period of time, usually 10, 20, or 30 years. You pay a premium to the insurance company, and if you die during the term of the policy, your beneficiaries receive a payout, known as the death benefit. If you outlive the term, the policy expires and there is no payout. It is a straightforward and affordable way to provide financial protection for your loved ones in case something happens to you.
