Yes. Subject to a particular insurance company's minimum face amount, an in- force contract may be reduced simply by filing the appropriate form with the ins. co. I know of no instance where an insurance company inaugurated the decrease; rather, the request must come from the insured.

Decreasing term life insurance does not usually have any cash value. Decreasing term life insurance is life insurance coverage in which the face amount of a term life insurance policy declines by a certain specified amount over a specific number of years. For example, the initial face amount of coverage of a $200,000 decreasing term life insurance policy decreases by $20,000 each year, until after 10 years the face value of the policy equals zero. The premium does not decrease over the term of the policy.

Well, honey, a 20-pay whole life policy would endow when the cash value equals the face amount of the policy. In simpler terms, it means the policy has enough cash value to pay out the death benefit without any more premiums due. So, sit tight and watch that policy grow until it's ready to cash out!
