Gifts of Life Insurance
(Important Reminders)

DO: It is important that you name DU as the irrevocable owner of the policy and not just the beneficiary if you intend to deduct your premium payments. The IRS does not allow deductions for your premium payments if you retain ownership of the policy.

WATCH OUT: If you have borrowed against a life insurance policy, a subsequent gift of the policy will create taxable income for you – the difference between the loan balance and the fair market value of the policy.
