Concept

The proceeds of a life insurance policy may be payable to the policyowner, the policyowner’s estate or a beneficiary designated by the policyowner.

Definitions

A primary beneficiary is the first named beneficiary who must survive the death of the life insured in order in order to collect the proceeds. A contingent beneficiary is a person who will receive the proceeds if the primary beneficiaries predecease the life insured.

Example

Marianne purchased a policy and named Fred, her common-law partner as the beneficiary. She named her mother as the contingent beneficiary. She named her aunt as the contingent beneficiary subsequent to her mother. Fred predeceased Marianne.

When Marianne died, her mother was still alive and received the proceeds. If her mother was deceased and her aunt alive, her aunt would have received the proceeds.
