Life insurance for newlyweds

Your life insurance options

There are two broad categories: individual and joint. Consider how long you need coverage, what it's for, and what you can spend.

Individual policies cover one person. The two main types:

Term life Most affordable and straightforward. Covers a set period (typically 10–30 years). If you pass during the term, beneficiaries receive a lump-sum death benefit. No benefit is paid if you outlive the term.

Permanent life

More complex, but offers lifelong coverage. Whole life is the most common type: guaranteed payout at death and builds "cash value" that can be borrowed against tax-free.

Joint policies cover two people, typically a married couple:

First-to-die

Second-to-die

Pays a benefit to the surviving spouse when the first partner passes. The policy then terminates.

Pays a benefit to beneficiaries after both partners have passed. Often used for estate planning.
