Waiver of Premium Life Insurance Disability Rider
If the insured becomes totally disabled, the insurer
will waive premiums for the duration of the
disability or the end of the policy, whichever occurs
first.
To qualify for the waiver, the insured must be
disabled for a waiting period of 3-6 months.
The policyowner must continue to pay premiums
during the waiting period, but once eligible, the
waiver is retroactive to the start of the disability
and the premiums will be refunded.
During the disability, the insured will credit the
premiums to the policy and all benefits, such as
cash value accumulation and dividend payments,
will continue.

In the event of total disability and after the initial
waiting period (such as 6 months), premiums are
waived and the insured is paid a monthly income.
The monthly disability income benefit is typically
limited to a percentage of the face value.
The benefit paid from the rider does not reduce
the death benefits paid out upon death.
