Washington life policy provisions study cards

Correct answer: The policy may be returned within 10 days for a premium refund

Washington's individual life policy examination provision generally allows the owner to return a new policy within 10 days after receiving it. Returning it within that period makes the policy void from its beginning and triggers a premium refund, subject to statutory exclusions.

Correct answer: One month, but never less than 30 days

The required provision gives the insured one month—but not less than 30 days—to pay a premium due after the first. The policy remains in force during the grace period, although an overdue premium and permitted interest may be deducted from a claim settlement.

Correct answer: The policy is generally incontestable after two years

Washington requires an individual life policy to become incontestable after it has been in force during the insured's lifetime for two years. Nonpayment of premiums remains an exception, and policies may include limited exceptions for certain disability or accidental-death benefits.

Correct answer: Benefits are adjusted to what the premium would have purchased at the correct age

The required misstatement-of-age provision adjusts the amount payable to the coverage the premium would have purchased at the insured's correct age, using the insurer's rates on the policy's issue date. It does not automatically void the policy.

Correct answer: The policy and any attached application

Washington requires an individual life policy to state that the policy and the attached application, if any, constitute the entire contract. Statements in the application are representations, not warranties, absent fraud.

Correct answer: Three years after lapse

The required life-policy reinstatement provision permits reinstatement within three years after default in premium payment, subject to the statute’s conditions such as evidence of insurability and payment of arrears with interest.

Correct answer: The option to which the policyholder is automatically entitled

Washington requires a life policy to specify the automatic nonforfeiture option that applies after premium default once nonforfeiture values are available, unless the policyholder elects another available option.

Correct answer: At least the first 20 years, or the policy’s life if shorter

Washington requires the policy to show, in figures, its loan value if any and options on premium default for at least the first 20 policy years, or for the policy’s life if it matures or expires sooner.

Correct answer: A table showing the amount and period of installments or annuity payments

When a life policy provides installment or annuity settlement options, Washington requires a table showing the amount and period of the installments or annuity, subject to a limited commissioner-approved alternative where inclusion is impractical.

Correct answer: To assure full and truthful disclosure of material and relevant information

Washington’s life insurance advertising regulation sets minimum standards and guidelines intended to assure full and truthful disclosure to the public of material and relevant information about life policies and annuity contracts.

Correct answer: A grace period of thirty days or of one month

RCW 48.23.030 requires that every individual life insurance policy contain a provision for a grace period of thirty days or one month within which the payment of any premium after the first may be made, during which time the policy continues in full force.

Correct answer: After being in force during the lifetime of the insured for two years from its date of issue

Under RCW 48.23.050, a life policy is incontestable after it has been in force during the lifetime of the insured for a period of two years from its date of issue, except for nonpayment of premiums and except for violation of policy conditions relating to military or naval service in time of war.

Correct answer: After three full years' premiums have been paid

RCW 48.23.080 mandates that after three full years' premiums have been paid and after the policy has a cash surrender value, the insurer will advance a loan on the sole security of the policy up to the reserve value.

Correct answer: Within three years from the date of premium default

RCW 48.23.120 requires a reinstatement provision allowing the policy to be reinstated at any time within three years from the date of default in premium payments, unless the cash surrender value has been paid or the extended term period expired.

Correct answer: Life income (straight life) option

The Life Income (straight life) settlement option uses annuity actuarial principles to guarantee periodic payments for the entire lifespan of the beneficiary, eliminating the risk of outliving one's proceeds. The fixed period and fixed amount options exhaust principal after a finite term.

Correct answer: A qualified physician diagnoses a terminal illness with a life expectancy of 24 months or less, or a specified catastrophic condition

Accelerated death benefit provisions allow early payout of a substantial percentage of life insurance proceeds upon medical certification that the insured has a terminal illness resulting in death within 24 months, or suffers an acute condition requiring permanent confinement.
