Irrevocable life insurance trust


An irrevocable life insurance trust (ILIT) can remove your life insurance from your taxable estate, help pay estate costs and provide your heirs with cash for a variety of purposes. To remove the policy from your estate, you surrender ownership rights, which means you may no longer borrow against it or change beneficiaries.
 
In return, the proceeds from the policy may be used to pay any estate costs after you die and provide your beneficiaries with tax-free income. That can be useful in cases where you leave heirs an illiquid asset such as a business. The business might take awhile to sell, and in the meantime your heirs will have to pay operating expenses. If they don't have cash on hand, they might have to have a fire sale just to meet the bills. But proceeds from an ILIT can help tide them over.
