Purchasing a term insurance policy is mostly done to protect your family's financial future. I f you pass away too soon, you want to make sure that your family does not face financial hardship and continues to live comfortably. The most basic type of life insurance is a term. I f you pass away while the policy is in effect, it guarantees to pay your f amily (nominees/beneficiaries) the sum assured amount. However, the insurer needs you to consistently pay all of your premiums to honor this guarantee. You can pay the premiums on a monthly, quarterly, half - yearly, or annual basis, whichever is more conven ient for you. What Happens If You Stop Paying Your Term Life Insurance Premiums ? You choose to pay the premiums for your term insurance plan monthly . You have recently been experiencing a lot of stress at work, and as a result, you have neglected to make your regular monthly term insurance premium payment. Your insurance will grant you a 15 - day grace period to make the necessary payment in this case. • Loss Of Term Cover The life insurance coverage you have for your family is the first and most important thi ng you lose if you don't pay the premium for your term insurance plan. After your passing, your family won't have a consistent source of income to rely on. Their future finances become insecure. • D ifficulty In Buying A New Term Plan You always have the cho ice of resuming c overage in your current policy, within two years o f the original premium due date or purchasing a new term insurance policy if your policy expires early due to non - payment of timely premiums. However, in both situations, you would have to go through the necessary checks again, such as medical exams, paperwork, and so forth. • Proposal G etting Declined There is a possibility that your pro posal will be rejected, even though you go through the entire procedure of purchasing a new term insurance plan again. This might be the case as a result of you possibly developing a new illness or medica l condition, etc. • Losing Protection Under Section 45 After the first three years of coverage, insurers are required by IRDA to honor life insurance claims without scrutiny. You essentially lose this immunity if your term insurance expires or if you purc hase a new term insurance plan. This could imply that any term insurance claim made within the next three years would be thoroughly investigated, delaying the settlement of the claim and the payment to your family.
