Income protection insurance provides financial security by ensuring you can cover your bills and support your family if you become sick or injured and are unable to work. If your employment is temporarily put on hold due to illness or injury, this insurance offers a steady income to manage your expenses until you either return to work, retire, or your policy ends. These policies are typically affordable, with premiums collected through simple monthly payments. In most cases, the payments you receive are tax-free and can be used to support you during your recovery.
It’s important to note that income protection plans without an investment link do not have a cash-in value at any time and will expire at the end of the policy term. Additionally, if you stop paying premiums, your coverage may be terminated.
Tax treatment depends on individual circumstances and may change in the future. Please be aware that the Financial Conduct Authority does not regulate tax planning.
WHAT IS COVERED?
The insurance schemes we recommend provide coverage for an extensive range of illnesses and accidents that prevent you from working, including cases of disability. You can make multiple claims, so a previous claim does not affect your ability to claim again in the future. Unlike critical illness insurance, income protection does not pay out a lump sum; instead, it provides a regular monthly payment.
Our financial advisers are dedicated to evaluating your current circumstances to identify the most suitable insurance package for your needs. With access to a wide range of products designed to provide support during times of financial difficulty, you can have peace of mind knowing that you and your family will be able to manage your expenses even if you’re unable to work.
Individual Protection Insurance plans typically have limits on the benefits you can claim, generally ranging between 50-60% of your earnings from the previous year, minus deductions for the basic level of Employment and Support Allowance (ESA).
We’re more than happy to come out and see you, at a time that suits. Evenings & weekends too, if needed!
