The IRS found in Letter Ruling 9604001 that the cash surrender value of a split-dollar life insurance plan that exceeds the funds owed to the employer is taxable under IRC section 83. Two alternative filing positions may be considered by taxpayers faced with income inclusion of excess split-dollar funds. The taxpayer may argue that the transfer from the employer to the employee occurs at the time of policy formation and not when the cash surrender value exceeds premium reimbursement. Taxpayers may also consider arguing that section 83 does not apply to collateral assignment split-dollar plans.

Reasons for providing life insurance for children are presented, including: 1. future insurability, 2. death of a child, and 3. forced savings plan and a step-up in life. Keep in mind that loans and withdrawals will decrease your death benefit and the cash value available to pay insurance costs. Surrenders may generate an income tax liability and may be subject to a surrender charge. A significant taxable event can occur if a contract lapses with an outstanding loan. Loaned values may be credited at a lower rate than unloaned values. Not pleasant to talk about, because no one wants to lose a child, but it happens to families every day. The loss of a child is difficult enough without the additional financial strain, and life insurance death benefit proceeds can help ease or eliminate th...
