What Happens If You Don’t Pay Life Insurance Premium?
However, non-payment of insurance premiums beyond the grace period may result in a policy lapse , meaning your life cover can lapse and your benefits may be affected. In some cases, especially with permanent life insurance, there may be options like revival, using the cash value, or converting the policy to a paid-up status, depending on the terms of your plan.
How Do We Treat Policy Lapses?
In case of non-payment after the grace period , the policy may lapse. We do allow reinstatement within a specific limit after lapse by accepting the payment of the outstanding premiums. However, it is along with any applicable late fees and the submission of a health declaration. The non-forfeiture clause works alongside these provisions to protect your interests and keep your plan meaningful even during payment gaps.
