Can My Policy Lapse After Grace Period Ends?

What happens when your life insurance premium payment is overdue? This video dives into the critical question: can your policy truly lapse once the grace period has ended? Understanding the mechanics of your life insurance policy is crucial for maintaining coverage. Here's what you need to know: ► A grace period is a short window (often 30-31 days) after a missed premium payment during which your policy remains active. ► If payment is not received by the end of the grace period, your life insurance policy can indeed lapse, meaning coverage terminates. ► A lapsed policy can lead to loss of protection for your beneficiaries and may require applying for new coverage, often at a higher cost. ► Proactive steps like setting up automatic payments or contacting your insurer if you anticipate a payment issue can prevent a lapse. ► Depending on the policy and insurer, there might be options for reinstatement after a lapse, though it often involves health underwriting and catching up on payments. #PolicyLapse, #LifeInsuranceGracePeriod, #InsuranceCoverage, #LifeInsuranceTips, #FinancialPlanning, #ProtectYourFamily
