Readers Question: “Are life insurance benefits taxable in Columbia, South Carolina?”
Did you know that Kristin Davis (Sex and the City) is a native of Columbia, South Carolina.
Answer to Readers Question: Death b
enefits from a life insurance policy are usually not subject to federal income tax. There are exceptions, though, if the IRS deems your life insurance policy to be an investment in disguise. Your insurance agent should be able to tell you if your policy benefits will be taxable.
One of the still remaining, best aspects of Life insurance, is that the insurance industry has gotten congress to retain that payouts of life insurance to a beneficary are NOT TAXABLE.
That is also why one should always have their life insurance policy payable to a specific benficiary…it passes very quickly, directly to them, outside of the estate and being outside the estate, is exempt from estate/inheritance and transfer taxes or fees.

Question from one of my readers: ” Are life insurance benefits taxable in South Carolina?”
Charleston, South Carolina, is known as The Holy City due to the prominence of churches on the low-rise cityscape, especially the numerous steeples that dot the city’s skyline. Charleston is a notable tourist destination, with streets lined with grand live oaks draped with spanish moss. Along the waterfront in an area known as Rainbow Row are many beautiful and historic pastel colored homes. The city is also an import port, as it is the second largest container seaport on the East Coast.
Thank you for asking Bob.
