The taxation of life insurance proceeds or endowment policy proceeds payable during the insured`s lifetime is governed by Code 72, the same section that governs the taxation of the payments received under annuity contracts.here the proceeds of an endowment or surrendered policy are paid during life in a lump sum, any excess of such proceeds over the cost of the policy is taxable income [I.R.C. 72(e); Reg. 1.72-11(d)]. The gain is considered ordinary income and not capital gain.
Short-term capital gains â property that was sold less than a year after you bought it â are taxed at the same rate as regular income, while long-term gains get a lower rate. If your taxable gain is $120,000, for example, and you're in the 25 percent tax bracket, you'd pay $30,000 if you sell after six months, but only 15 percent â $18,000 â if you hold on to the property for longer than a year.
