FAQ
  • What is life insurance?
    Life insurance is a contract between you and an insurance company. In exchange for premium payments, the insurance company provides a lump-sum payment, known as a death benefit, to your beneficiaries upon your death.
  • Why do I need life insurance?
    Life insurance provides financial protection for your loved ones in the event of your death. It can help cover expenses such as funeral costs, outstanding debts, and living expenses, ensuring your family’s financial stability.
  • What types of life insurance are available?
    There are several types of life insurance, including: Term Life Insurance: Provides coverage for a specific period (e.g., 10, 20, or 30 years). Whole Life Insurance: Offers lifetime coverage and includes a savings component. Universal Life Insurance: Provides flexible premiums and death benefits, along with a savings component. Variable Life Insurance: Includes investment options for the cash value component.
  • How much life insurance do I need?
    The amount of life insurance you need depends on various factors, including your income, debts, lifestyle, and the financial needs of your dependents. A common rule of thumb is to have coverage that is 10-15 times your annual income.
  • How are premiums determined?
    Premiums are based on several factors, including your age, health, lifestyle, occupation, and the type and amount of coverage you choose. Generally, younger and healthier individuals pay lower premiums.
  • Can I change my coverage later?
    Yes, many life insurance policies offer options to adjust your coverage as your needs change. This can include increasing or decreasing the death benefit, changing the term length, or converting a term policy to a permanent one.
  • What happens if I miss a premium payment?
    If you miss a premium payment, most policies offer a grace period (typically 30 days) during which you can make the payment without losing coverage. If the payment is not made within the grace period, the policy may lapse.
  • What is the 'free look' period for cancelling a life insurance policy?
    The 'free look' period allows policyholders to cancel their life insurance policy within 30 days of receiving the policy documents for a full refund of any premiums paid.
  • Are the benefits from life insurance taxable?
    Generally, the death benefit paid to your beneficiaries is not subject to federal income tax. However, there may be estate taxes if your estate exceeds certain limits.
  • How do I file a claim?
    To file a claim, your beneficiaries should contact our customer service team at inquiry@nektinyanprudence.com. They will need to provide the policy number, a copy of the death certificate, and any other required documentation.

  • How do I choose the right policy?
