No. Pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 101(a)(1), life insurance proceeds are excluded from the beneficiary’s gross income for federal income tax purposes.

While life insurance proceeds are not included in the employee’s income for federal income tax purposes, generally the proceeds are included in the employee’s estate and subject to federal estate taxes. With proper estate planning and the assistance of a tax consultant, it is often possible to avoid inclusion of the life insurance proceeds within the decedent’s/employee’s estate.

Your life insurance will be continued without payment of premiums while you are Totally Disabled if:

a] You become Totally Disabled while insured under the Group Policy and you are under the age of 60;

b] You complete the applicable Waiting Period; and

c] You provide Securian Financial with satisfactory Proof of Loss.

Continuation in the case of a disability can be quite confusing, therefore if you believe you qualify for this coverage contact your Human Resources or Benefits Department as soon as possible to review the administrative specifics of continuing your coverage.

Maybe. Some, but not all, of the employer’s in AzMT offer additional life insurance coverage for employee purchase. If offered by your employer, additional life insurance coverage is available through convenient payroll deduction. The premium amounts vary by age. Please contact your Human Resources or Benefits Department for specific coverage, premium and enrollment information.
