The death benefit is the money that is paid out to the beneficiary when the policyholder dies. The beneficiary can be anyone that the policyholder has designated , such as a spouse, child, or other family member. The death benefit can be used for any purpose, such as to pay off debts, cover funeral expenses, or to provide financial security for the beneficiary .

In other cases, the death benefit is paid out in installments, such as over a period of 10 years . This can be beneficial for the beneficiary if they need the money to cover expenses or if they want to invest the money .

The death benefit can also be used to purchase a life insurance policy for the beneficiary . This can provide them with financial security in the event that the policyholder dies .

It is important to note that the death benefit is not subject to income tax . This means that the beneficiary will not have to pay any taxes on the money that they receive. This is because the death benefit is considered to be a tax-free benefit.
