Can You Be Denied Life Insurance?

Yes, you can be turned down for life insurance coverage.

There are many reasons why someone may be turned down for life insurance.

Some of the most common reasons for being declined for life insurance include old age, poor health, history of cancer, drug and/or alcohol abuse, DUI's, high risk occupation or high risk hobbies, among other things.

However, you may still have other options available for life insurance, including contacting high risk life insurance carriers and brokers who specialize in placing life insurance for high risk people - or buying guaranteed issue life insurance.
