The death benefit of any life insurance policy with properly named beneficiary is federal tax free. What you do with the money...may be taxable. Fear not, you are in the clear. 4lifeguild It also depends on who paid the premiums. If a company paid, and deducted then it's a good chance the proceeds will be taxable.

If question refers to whether or not the insurance benefit is subject to seizure for child support arrearages. If that is the case, the answer would be yes. Any monies garnered from the insurance benefit that belongs to the obligated parent would be subject to garnishment for child support arrearages. If the named beneficiary of the insurance benefit is deceased and the grandparent(s) are still living, they can legally have the policy amended and another beneficiary named. In that case the monies would not be a part of the deceased grandson's estate and not subject to probate action nor distribution for his debts.
