What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Oregon
Hi,
My mother was concerned that she would put us (myself and my husband) at financial risk with her burial costs when she dies. She is disabled, but receives only SSI. She has been paying a small amount monthly for a whole life insurance plan, worth $15k when she dies.
She heard from one of her neighbors recently that the government could take that money upon her death, even though I am named the beneficiary (and I am not on any government subsidy). Is there any truth to this?
