If my clientâs policy matures prior to the insuredâs death, the policy will typically pay out its cash value. How will this sum be taxed? If the policy matures prior to an insuredâs death, it ceases to be life insurance and is treated as a taxable distribution. As such, the cash value will be taxed as ordinary income to the extent it exceeds the taxpayerâs basis into the policy (i.e., the sum of after-tax premiums) .
The income you receive from disability income insurance may or may not be taxable. The taxability of disability income insurance benefits depends on what type of benefits you receive, whether the premiums were paid with pretax or after-tax dollars, and who paid the premiums (you or your employer).
