Universal Life

A Universal Life insurance policy from State Farm^® changes along with your life. This flexible policy lets you raise or lower your coverage-and your premiums-to fit your needs.¹ It even builds cash value you can use during your lifetime.

Eligibility


Premium Duration	Lifetime
Coverage Limits	Starting at $25,000 for ages 0 to 19 Starting at $50,000 for ages 20 to 54 Starting at $25,000 for ages 55 to 85
Issue Ages	0–85

How it Works

Premiums are flexible, you can pay your premiums monthly or annually.
Your premiums (after an expense charge) are added to your account value.
Every month, the cost of insurance for the policy and any riders, and any monthly expense charge are deducted from your account value.
Interest is credited to your account value; the current interest rate may change monthly, but will never be less than the guaranteed rate stated in the policy when you purchased it.
The cash value grows tax-deferred. Cash values can be accessed during your lifetime^2.
No matter how large your death benefit, it passes to your beneficiaries generally income tax-free.

Death Benefit Options

There are two death benefit options you can choose with a Universal Life insurance policy.

Option 1

Provides a level death benefit equal to the Basic Amount of life insurance you choose.

Option 2
