Common reasons for a denied life insurance claim

There are many reasons why a life insurance company may deny a claim. Some of the most common reasons include:

  • The policyholder did not pay premiums: If the policyholder did not keep up with their premium payments, the policy may have lapsed. As a result, the death benefit will not be paid out.
  • The policyholder lied on their application: If the policyholder lied on their life insurance application, the company may deny the claim. For example, if the policyholder failed to disclose a pre-existing condition, the company may argue that they would not have issued the policy if they had known about the condition. There are still ways to get coverage, even if there was a misstatement or alleged material misrepresentation
  • The death was not covered by the policy: Most policies have exclusions for certain types of deaths, such as suicides or deaths due to risky activities. If the policyholder’s death is not covered by the policy, the company may deny the claim.
  • The beneficiary is not eligible for benefits: In order to receive benefits, the beneficiary must be listed on the policy. If the beneficiary is not listed, the company may deny the claim.
  • The policy holder made a last minute beneficiary change:  If the policyholder changed the beneficiary shortly before their death, the company may suspect foul play and deny the claim.
  • The beneficiary was divorced:  If the beneficiary was divorced from the policyholder at the time of death, they may be ineligible for benefits. However, there are situations where the divorced beneficiary could still make a claim.
  • There is no death certificate:  In order to process a life insurance claim, the company will need a death certificate. If the beneficiary does not have a death certificate, the company may deny the claim.
