Sample questions & answers

1. The provision that allows a life policyowner to pay an overdue premium within a set time without the policy lapsing is the:

Grace period

The grace period lets an overdue premium be paid without lapse; Tennessee requires one month for premiums after the first year, with coverage continuing during that month.

2. After a Tennessee life policy has been in force for its contestable period (no more than two years), the insurer generally cannot void it for:

Misstatements in the application

Tennessee life policies must become incontestable within two years of their date, except for nonpayment of premium and certain military-service provisions.

3. To reinstate a lapsed life policy, the insurer commonly requires:

Back premiums with interest and proof of insurability

Reinstatement typically requires payment of overdue premiums with interest plus proof of insurability within the allowed period.

4. If an insured understated their age on a life application, at death the insurer will generally:

Pay what the premium would buy at the true age

Under the misstatement of age provision, the benefit is adjusted to the amount the premium would have purchased at the correct age.
