What Happens If You Stop Paying Life Insurance Premiums?

August 9, 2022No Comments3 Mins Read

When you get life insurance premiums, you receive coverage for the premiums you pay each year until the policy term expires. However, hectic schedules, increased obligations, and unexpected costs are some of the most typical reasons why policyholders are unable to pay the premium.

In the case of term insurance, if the policy is cancelled, you will forfeit any insurance benefits as well as any premiums paid. In the case of ULIPs, if you do not pay the premium during the first five years of the lock-in period, your policy is cancelled and the premiums paid are transferred to a discontinuance fund, which is reimbursed only after the lock-in period.

What Is the Late Fee for Paying a Premium?

The insurance business has a grace period of 30 days following the final date of premium payment, according to IRDAI norms. The policy is still in effect during the grace period. If the policyholder dies, the beneficiary is entitled to insurance during this time.

If You Are Unable To Pay The Premium

If you are unable to pay the life insurance premium, there are a few things you may do:

  • Cash-out the Policy – Check your policy’s terms and conditions, then ask your insurer whether you may cash out the premiums you’ve already paid. If you cash out, you will no longer get any insurance benefits, and the cash out will be taxed based on the amount you pay out.
  • Non-Forfeiture Alternatives –If you are unable to continue the life insurance coverage, some insurance firms will provide a lower paid-up alternative. The non-forfeiture option permits you to keep the coverage with reduced benefits based on your premium payments. It implies that if you do not pay your payment, your insurance will not be cancelled. The money previously paid is deducted from the coverage.
  • Reintroduce the Policy –The insurance company and the terms and circumstances of the policy will determine whether or not the expired life insurance policy should be restored. Most insurance companies may restore a lapsed life insurance policy for a penalty, late fees, or renewal costs, depending on how late you are renewing the policy.

How Do You Renew Your Own Life Insurance Premiums?

To restore your expired coverage, the insurance provider will impose a penalty or renewal cost. You will have to go through all of the medical testing again. The prerequisites for restoring the insurance are as follows:

  • Application for Reinstatement –An application for reinstatement must be made to the insurer. Make sure to submit the application during the renewal term, which is usually 2-3 years following the grace period.
  • Proof of Insurability –The insurance company requests evidence of continuing insurability before resuming the policy. For further information on insurability evidence, contact your insurance agent.
  • Medical Exams –The insurance provider will request that you undertake medical examinations to determine your current health state and to determine if there have been any changes since your first application.

Remember that restoring a policy is preferable than purchasing a new insurance since you will lose any premiums paid to date if you purchase a new policy. Furthermore, premiums for the new insurance may be greater than those for the old coverage. Insurance firms, too, urge clients to reactivate previously expired policies.

Setting reminders for the premium payment date is critical to ensuring that you pay your coverage payments on time. If you are unable to pay the premium, contact your insurance agent to discuss options for keeping your coverage and receiving all insurance benefits.
