Term Life Insurance
Life insurance protection when you need it most
Life insurance needs change as life circumstances change. You may need different coverage if you’re getting married, buying a home or having a child.
Term life insurance from Colonial Life provides protection for a specified period of time, typically offering the greatest amount of coverage for the lowest initial premium. This fact makes term life insurance a good choice for supplementing cash value coverage during life stages when obligations are higher, such as while children are younger. It’s also a good option for families on a tight budget — especially since you can convert it to a permanent cash value plan later.
With this coverage:
n A beneficiary can receive a benefit that is typically free from income tax.
n The policy’s accelerated death benefit can pay a percentage of the death benefit if the covered person is diagnosed with a terminal illness.
n You can convert it to a Colonial Life cash value insurance plan, with no proof of good health, to age 75.
n Coverage is guaranteed renewable up to age 95 as long as premiums are paid when due.
n Portability allows you to take it with you if you change jobs or retire.
Two options are available for spouse coverage at an additional cost: or the company.
1. Spouse Term Life Policy: Offers guaranteed premiums and level death benefits equivalent to those available to you –whether or not you buy a policy for yourself.
2. Spouse Term Life Rider: Add a term rider for your spouse to your policy, up to a maximum death benefit of $50,000; 10-year and 20-year are available (20-year rider only available with a 20- or 30-year term policy).
You may add a Children’s Term Life Rider to cover all of your eligible dependent children with up to $20,000 in coverage each for one premium.
The Children’s Term Life Rider may be added to either the primary or spouse policy, not both.
