At the start of the month, I asked the following: Name a long term care premium funding source that does not come from income, income producing assets, or qualified money.
The answer to my inquiry is exercising a 1035 exchange from a cash value life insurance policy into Asset Care or one of our Annuity Care products. Or, exercising a 1035 from a non-qualified deferred annuity into an Annuity Care product.
Those who replied will be receiving a LTC Coffee Break coffee mug in the next few weeks. Thank you for participating.
One more thing to remember – a 1035 exchange will not trigger a taxable event when funding both the policy (both the base and continuation of benefit riders). Also remember that distributions from the policies that are made to pay claims will be tax free.
If you would like to hear about more funding strategies, my internal sales partner Justin Fox and I are always available to assist you with any of your questions. Justin can be reached at justinfox.isp@oneamerica.com and at (844) 658-3725. And, I can be contacted by phone/text at (678) 512-9627 and kevin.fisher@oneamerica.com
