Term Life Insurance FAQs

How much term life insurance do I need?

A general guideline is 10-12 times your annual income, but consider your specific situation: outstanding debts (mortgage, loans), future expenses (college tuition), income replacement needs, and final expenses. Our coverage calculator can help determine the right amount for your family.

What happens when my term life insurance expires?

You have several options: renew the policy (usually at higher rates), convert to permanent life insurance (if your policy includes this option), purchase a new term policy (may require medical underwriting), or let the coverage end if no longer needed.

Can I get term life insurance with health conditions?

Yes, many people with health conditions qualify for term life insurance. Conditions like controlled diabetes, high blood pressure, or past cancer may still allow coverage. We work with carriers specializing in various health situations to find you the best rates.

Is the medical exam required for term life insurance?

Not always. Many carriers offer no-exam term life policies up to certain coverage amounts. These policies use health questions and database checks instead. However, policies with medical exams often offer better rates and higher coverage limits.

Can I convert my term life to whole life later?

Most term life policies include a conversion option that allows you to convert to permanent coverage without a medical exam. This must typically be done before a certain age or within a specific timeframe. Check your policy for specific conversion privileges.

Are term life insurance premiums tax-deductible?

Generally, personal term life insurance premiums are not tax-deductible. However, death benefits paid to beneficiaries are typically income tax-free. Business-owned policies may have different tax treatment. Consult a tax professional for your specific situation.
