In a life insurance application, you would typically be required to provide personal information such as age, occupation, health history, lifestyle habits, and financial details. You may also need to disclose any pre-existing medical conditions, family medical history, and whether you engage in high-risk activities. It's crucial to provide accurate and truthful information to ensure that your policy is valid and will provide the intended coverage.
Typically, once a life insurance policy has been in force for two years, it enters a period known as the contestability period. During this time, the insurance company can question the validity of the policy or any claims made. After this period, the policy is considered incontestable, meaning the insurance company cannot dispute its validity based on misrepresentation or other factors.
The period is generally about 2 years for information provided honestly and to the best of one's knowledge at the time of application. If information provided changes as time passes, the insurer should notified, but if that is not possible, the clause could protect the insured from penalty. However, it is important to note that incontestability clauses are not license to commit fraud. If you are ever found to make material misrepresentations in the past that lead to benefits paid, the insurer has the right to pursue restitution and criminal charges. Statute of limitations, if any, would vary from state to state. If there has been a claim and the provision may apply, read the insurance policy itself as it may indicate specific peramaters, definition and length of such a clause (contact your agent for help) or your state's Department of Insurance should have a Consumer Hotline and if necessary, they could obtain the specifics from your insurer.

Generally, no. However, the fact that you are in jail does not excuse making the premium payments on the policy. Therefore, the policy may lapse (terminate) for non-payment of premium if payments are not made. Jail may enter the picture in another way. If the person who goes to jail is the beneficiary on the policy, and the incarceration is because the beneficiary killed the insured, the beneficiary will not be able to collect the life insurance proceeds. A person such as he/she will not be permitted to benefit from the wrongful act of killing the insured.

Yes. Suggestions are usually made from prior experience with certain life insurance companies (as any other suggestions & referrals). I would say the the life insurance companies are mostly fair as long as you don't lie on your application. The horror stories you hear (they wouldn't pay...) usually come from some kind of untruth that is being investigated. For the most part, the life insurance companies are fair and true.
An insurance policy in combination with the application for insurance together make a legally binding contract. The application is the acceptance of the quote along with certain guarantees made by the applicant. As long as the truth is given on the application then the application is accepted by the company and it is a bound contract. If it is later found that you lied on the application, the contract is broken and the company does not have to abide by their part of the agreement either.
