When a life insurance policy fails to meet the federal statutory definition, it may be classified as a modified endowment contract (MEC). This designation can lead to unfavorable tax consequences, such as taxation on withdrawals and loans, which may be subject to penalties if taken before the policyholder reaches age 59½. Additionally, the policy may lose certain tax advantages typically associated with life insurance, impacting its overall benefits for the policyholder.
If a life insurance policy fails to meet the federal statutory definition of life insurance, it may be reclassified as a different type of financial product, such as an investment or annuity. This reclassification can lead to adverse tax consequences, including the loss of tax-deferred growth and potential taxation of the death benefit. Additionally, the policyholder may lose certain regulatory protections typically afforded to life insurance products. In some cases, the policy could be deemed non-compliant, resulting in penalties or the loss of coverage.
