The death benefit from a life insurance policy is most commonly paid out as an income tax-free lump sum, unless the beneficiary of your insurance policy chooses to take the benefit as an annuity, or in installment payments.
Life insurance death benefits can also be split: the policyholder can designate more than one beneficiary, for example, by dividing the benefit equally (or not) between the insured’s family members.
