Return of Premium Death Benefit Option (during deferral period)
If the ROP Death Benefit is elected, and the annuitant and joint annuitant (if applicable) die before the Income Date, a death benefit equal to the sum of all premiums will be paid to any living owner, or, if no owner survives, to the named beneficiary.
You will receive lower income payments if the ROP Death Benefit is elected than if you had not elected the benefit.
Income Date & Income Payment Frequency Change
A change to the Income Date or Income Payment Frequency can be made twice during the deferral period. A change to either will count toward the two times allowed. To request a change, 60 days advance notice is required.
The Income Date can be moved by a maximum of 60 months in either direction, subject to the following:
- A move between 30 and 60 months will count as two available changes. No further changes to the Income Date or Payment Frequency are permitted.
- For contracts without the optional ROP Death Benefit, the new date must be at least 24 months from the date the request is received.
Qualifying Longevity Annuity Contracts
QLACs allow IRA owners and defined contribution plan participants to defer taxes on a portion of their RMDs up to age 85. This helps clients address the risk of running out of money or unnecessarily limiting retirement spending.
Important QLAC rules to consider include:
- Eligible accounts include 401(a), 401(k), 403(b), 457(b), traditional IRA, SEP-IRA and SIMPLE IRA.
- QLAC purchases per person are limited to $135,000 or 25% of qualified account balances, whichever is less.
- Distributions must begin no later than the first day of the month following your 85th birthday.
- Income payment options can be life only or life with cash refund (individual or joint).
- Once income starts, the payments must satisfy RMD rules.
- The contract cannot have any cash surrender value or commutation benefit.
- The contract must state from inception that it is intended to be a QLAC.
