No, if you are the beneficiary of the policy you will receive the money in full from the ins company, not the employer. If the employer is the beneficiary and they have an agreement to pay you a specific amount from the death benefit then yes they can. But this is rare.

If it is just a regular company offered group life ins policy your contract is with the life ins company, not the employer. So the employer has nothing to do with the process of you being paid. You will receive a check from the ins co as soon as they receive the death certificate.

But the IRS can take the money from your bank account....they will always find a way to get what they say is owed to them!

How does your deductible work in home insurance?

The amount of a policy deductible on a homeowners insurance policy is chosen by the policyholder. Your policy deductible is the amount you are responsible for paying before the insurance company will payout for a claim. If you experience a loss to your dwelling or your personal property, your homeowners insurance policy deductible applies. The deductible does not apply to other coverages on the policy. If you experience a loss under your deductible, you will not be eligible for a payout. If your loss exceeds your deductible, your deductible will be deducted from your claims payout check.
