How Long Does Term Life Insurance Last?

A term life insurance policy is a form of life insurance that is temporary, for a set period of time.

Usually, term life insurance provides protection for a period of 5, 10, 15, 20 or 30 years.

If you outlive the "term" of your term life policy, the life insurance coverage ends without paying out a death benefit.

If you die during the term, the death benefit is paid out to your beneficiary, unless there are any exclusions that would prohibit payout.

If you decide you still need life insurance at expiration of your policy you may renew the term life insurance for another term without taking any medical exam, but your rate will increase based on your age at tome of renewal.

Another option might be to compare term life insurance rates and plans among other insurers when your renewal comes up to see if there are any better deals available.
