What happens to a spouse when an ex girlfriend is left as the beneficiary on an old life insurance policy?
It is the responsibility of the person holding the life insurance policy to keep the beneficiary data updated as necessary. In the scenario in the question, the ex girlfriend was listed as the beneficiary ... and will be awarded the proceeds from the policy. Unfortunately, there is little the spouse can do to stop that. The beneficiary designation is binding and will hold up in a court of law.

If an adult daughter makes a claim on a life insurance policy and another inidividual is the designated beneficiary what consideration is given to the claim by the insurance company?
Only the beneficiary has claim to the life insurance. They were put as the beneficiary for a reason. I would see if there is a will which states who gets what. Most people leave it to one person(whome they trust completely), then leave it up to that person to designate who gets what. More than likely, once the funeral is paid for as well as the debt the deceased might have left, there might be nothing left.

Does the beneficiary of the life insurance policy have to turn over funds to the estate to pay debt?
I am not an expert but have been involved in my dad's estate. If you are a listed beneficiary on the life insurance policy, it is your money. Unless you are the spouse. Debt does not have to be paid by the beneficiaries. My dad's left over $30,000 in debt. He had a $30,000 life insurance policy that had named beneficiaries. We got the insurance policy and did not have to pay for the debt. Check your state's policy. Go to a free law clinic and verify this info. Good Luck!

What happens to life insurance benefits if beneficiary refuses payments?
Most life insurance policies have a primary and secondary beneficiary. If the primary signs away all their present and future rights to the benefits then it will be left to the secondary beneficiary. If there is no secondary beneficiary or the secondary beneficiary is deceased the money would be left to the estate of the insured and subject to probate. This would place the funds subject to estate taxes if the estate is large enough. As a matter of full disclosure, I own and operate a small Independent Insurance Agency for the past 22 years and worked as an agent for direct writers for 3 years prior to that.
