question#1 - Is the beneficiary of a life insurance policy taxed on the amount they recieve?
question#2 - Is the money from a life insurance policy protected from creditor's (of the deceased). A beneficiary (other than the deceaseds estate) has been named.
question #3 - Are beneficiary designations legally binding (i.e. can someone other than the named beneficiary claim they should be entitled to the proceeds based on a closer tie to the deceased).
For example, if the beneficiary is a sibling of the deceased, does a child of the deceased have any legal claim to the proceeds?
Thanks in advance for any help.
