An annuity settlement is a financial or insurance arrangement where the insured party receives periodic payments from the accused. The accused may then transfer their periodic payment responsibilities to an organized settlement organization.
A period certain annuity guarantees payments for a specific period, such as 10 or 20 years, regardless of the annuitant's lifespan. A life annuity provides payments for the lifetime of the annuitant, ensuring income for as long as they live but ceasing upon their death.
A life annuity with period certain is a type of annuity that provides regular payments for life, with a minimum guaranteed period during which payments will continue, even if the annuitant dies. If the annuitant dies before the end of the guaranteed period, the payments will continue to a beneficiary until the end of that period.
A fixed income annuity is a type of insurance contract where the insurance company makes payments of a preassigned amount to the holder of the annuity, the annuitant.
An annuitant is the recipient of an annuity.

In a joint annuity, the annuitant's spouse typically needs to meet the minimum age requirement, which is often set at 59 and a half to receive payments. If the spouse is younger, the annuity may not allow for payments to be made to the annuitant. It's important to review the specific terms and conditions of the annuity contract to determine eligibility for payments.
A life annuity with period certain is a type of annuity that provides regular payments for the rest of the annuitant's life, with a guaranteed minimum payment period specified in the contract. If the annuitant dies before the guaranteed period ends, payments will continue to a beneficiary until the end of that period.
After 15 years with a 15-year certain and life annuity, the annuity payments will continue for the rest of the annuitant's life even if they live beyond the initial 15-year period. If the annuitant passes away before the end of the 15 years, the payments will continue to a designated beneficiary for the remainder of the 15 years.
With this option, the insurer pays annuity income benefits for a specified period of time (e.g., 10 or 20 years). The stated period over which the insurer will make the benefit payments is called the period certain. Even if the annuitant dies during this period, it will not affect the income benefit payments. When the period certain ends, so do the payments.

Life with a certain annuity typically does not expire for the duration specified in the contract, which could be for a set number of years or for the life of the annuitant. Once the specified period ends, the annuity payments cease.
