What does Term Life Insurance cover?
Simply put, it’s an affordable way to provide death benefit protection for your family for a set period of time. It also offers several other advantages
Choice
You choose the “term” (the level premium paying period) as well as your payment schedule—monthly, quarterly, bi-annually, or annually.
Consistency
Your payments stay the same for the entire term. Once the level premium paying period ends, you can continue paying (typically annually increasing premiums to a certain age) or stop paying and no longer have coverage.
tax protection
If you die during the time you’re covered, your beneficiaries receive the death benefit, typically income-tax free
flexibility
You can convert a term life insurance policy into a permanent policy that can potentially cover you for life—no additional medical exam is needed during the conversion period.
