Generally, opting to lapse a term policy early carries no penalties. As another poster said, if you opt to get insurance againt it may mean you have to go through the medicals and such again. However, some insurance companies will let your application and medical results stay valid for 3 to 6 months from the time you sign the application.
Before lapsing an insurance policy, please make sure it's in your best interest to do so.
Good reasons to lapse it would include:
1. Having been oversold. For example, having a $20,000 annual income, no assets, and being sold a $10,000,000 policy.
2. Not needing insurance. For example, having no family, no assets to protect, no heirs, no charities you want to give to, etc, and being sold a policy.
3. The insurance company is in financial trouble and may not be able to pay a claim.
Poor reasons to lapse a policy include:
1. Not wanting to protect your family. (If you have kids, generally you should have enough life insurance to provide for them even if you are gone, for example)
2. Hearing that "insurance sucks" from a well-meaning friend or relative. (Kind of like the well-intentioned relative who says things like "antibiotics are just a way doctors rip you off - you'll heal just fine")
3. The agent is a jerk you don't trust to do stuff like "handle a death claim properly" (have your policy assigned to a more relaible agent)
Basically: Make sure, before you lapse a policy, that you're not removing important protection. If it's useful to have (like if you have a family) and it's within your budget, generally it's smarter to keep some life insurance in place. If there's no actual need (no family, etc) then you may not have any reason to keep it. Make the decision from a position of well-informed throughtfulness.
Good luck! |

Usually, with short term life insurance policies you get nothing back if you cancel the policy.
However, most life insurance companies offer a "Free Look" Period.
Usually the free look period is 10 days or 30 days.
If your free look period was 30 days, and you chose to cancel the policy within the first 30 days of receiving it, you should be able to receive a full refund of all premiums paid.
If you owned the policy longer than the free look period, you should receive a pro-rata refund based on how much you paid and how long you had the policy.
For instance, if you paid the annual premium of $1,200 and you canceled the policy after the second month, you should receive $100 back for each month you didn;t own the policy - You would get back $1,000 - Less any expenses charged by the insurance company for issuing and canceling the policy.
This may vary by insurance company, but it is possible you get something back.
It may pay to call the insurance company and ask, or contact your agent.
I hope that helps! Best of luck to you. |

No. Your policy is good as long as the premiums are paid. If you quit paying the premiums than you no longer are covered. No need to cancel as you have already paid. You may call and cancel at the end of your payment term. The only problem is if you ever go back to get term insurance you will have to go through the whole process(questionnaires, physicals, etc) again. |

Nope not a thing. Was there a reason that you were canceling the policy?Has your life changed to where no one depends on your income? If people do rely on your income, you may still need insurance. |

Not usually, but you might not get a refund, either. |

No. Usually you don't get money back. Term is just like car and home insurance. |
