How Does Children's Life Insurance Work?

Children’s life insurance is always going to be a whole life policy that never expires, price never increases, coverage won’t decrease and builds cash value. Plans cost just pennies per day since the children are so young and both parents and grandparents are entitled to purchase a policy on their kids/grandkids.

Coverage That’s Guaranteed For Life

Whole life insurance for children or grandchildren is guaranteed to last forever. At no point will the benefits decrease or expire due to age. This is an iron clad guarantee you will see in the policy. Plus at no extra cost, they’ll have the right to buy more coverage multiple times later in life regardless of health or lifestyle.

Locked-In Prices & Coverage

Children’s whole life insurance has a fixed price that will never increase. The rate you pay at the start is what you will always pay. In addition, the policy is non-cancellable, and the coverage will never decrease.

Build Cash Value

All whole life insurance builds cash value which acts as a behind the scenes savings account that earns interest. Basically, every time you make a payment, the cash value increases. You can help build a nest egg for your child or grandchild to use later in life for college or any other reason.

Two Free Riders For Maximum Value

Life insurance for kids from Mutual of Omaha will also include two free riders to ensure your precious little ones are protected in the future should the unforeseen happen. These come at no cost to you.

Waiver of Premium

Mutual of Omaha will waive all premiums for 90 days after the death of the policy owner starting on the day the owner died. The waived premiums do not need to be repaid. This rider ensures there is ample time for someone else to take over the payments, so the policy doesn’t lapse.

Guaranteed Insurability

The guaranteed insurability rider guarantees each covered child the ability to buy more coverage later in life without being subject to underwriting requirements. Put simply, they cannot be turned down for the additional coverage. Mutual of Omaha offers your kids the ability to buy more coverage more often than any other child life insurance company. They may buy more coverage at any or all of these events:

  • 25, 30, 35 & 40th birthdays.
  • Marriage, domestic partnership, and civil union
  • When have or adopt a child of their own.
  • Purchase of a home.

Two Free Riders For Maximum Value

Life insurance on children can serve many purposes. At the end of the day, you must decide what reason resonates with you the most. Generally speaking, there are three main reason most people buy whole life insurance for children.

Funeral Expenses

The average traditional burial service can cost upwards of $10,000 (source NFDA). For most American families, that is too hefty a bill to swallow. A child life insurance plan can ensure that should the worst happen that the funeral expenses will not become a financial burden.

Savings For College

Because juvenile life insurance is a whole life policy, it builds cash value. Cash value acts as a behind the scenes savings account that grows tax-deferred every time you make a payment. This account also earns interest. As an adult, your insured children have the right to borrow from this money to use toward college expenses.

Guaranteed Insurability

Baby life insurance plans all come with the guarantee that as an adult, they can purchase more life insurance without being subjected to underwriting. No matter what their health or lifestyle is later on in life, they are guaranteed to be approved for the additional coverage. While it’s rare young to middle aged adults experience severe health issues, it does sometimes happen. When that happens, the guaranteed insurability is gold.

Children’s Life Insurance Frequently Asked Questions

Who can buy child life insurance?

Any parent, grandparent, great grandparent, stepparent or legal guardian may purchase a kid’s whole life policy. Also, grandparents and stepparents do not need permission from the children’s immediate mother or father.

How long does it take to apply and receive my policy?

Our online application is simply and easy to use. You can fill out the entire application in less than 5 minutes! Once your application is submitted to Mutual of Omaha and approved, you can expect to receive the actual paper policy via US mail within 10 business days.

Do I have to make a payment today with the application?

Absolutely not! In the application, you can select when you want your payments to be withdrawn. Just know, your first payment must be made within 30 days from the day you submit the application.

I live in one state and the children I want to insure live in another. Which state do I choose?

You must choose the state you live in.

Does infant life insurance have any exclusions?

Yes. All child life policies have a suicide exclusion. If the child were to commit suicide during the first two years, the insurance company would simply refund 100% of the premiums paid into the policy.

What is cash value and how does it work?

Since life insurance on a baby or juvenile is whole life insurance it builds up a small savings account called cash value. Basically, a small portion of every payment you make it set aside into this account. In addition, it earns interest. Overtime, this amount builds up which you can withdraw later in life to help for your child’s college or other expenses.

What if my child has preexisting conditions?

It really depends on the nature of their conditions. If your child was just premature, that in of itself will not be a disqualifying factor. In general, life insurance for babies will not be possible if the child suffers from any sort of disease or disorder that requires ongoing treatment. The two most common examples are down’s syndrome and type 1 diabetes. If your child has either of those conditions, they unfortunately will not qualify. In the end, if you are unsure about their eligibility call us or submit the application with details about their condition, and an underwriter will get back to you.

Is there term baby life insurance?

Unfortunately, no companies offer term life insurance to children. All child life insurance plans are hole life insurance.

Is there a waiting period once the policy issued?

Whole life for kids will never have a waiting period. Your child will either be approved which comes with immediate coverage, or they will be declined.

What is child life insurance?

Life insurance for an infant is merely a small whole life policy that insures the life of a child. If the insured child were to die, the money would be paid tax free to the policy beneficiary. The money can be used for anything. Medical records are not required nor is an exam. The parent, guardian, or grandparent purchases the coverage by answering a few basic health questions.
