What Is Family Income Benefit?

Family Income Benefit is a type of life cover designed to provide a monthly, tax-free income to your family from the date of your death until the end of the policy term. It's especially suited to those looking to safeguard dependants from the risk of financial hardship.

It helps cover:

  • Mortgage or rent payments
  • Household bills and utilities
  • Childcare or education costs
  • Food, transport, and other essentials

You can select a policy length and income amount based on your family's requirements.

 

 

How Does Family Income Benefit Work?

With Family Income Benefit, you choose:

  • The length of your policy (for example, until your children reach adulthood)
  • The amount of monthly income to be provided to your family

How it works:

  • If you die during the policy term, your family receives the chosen income until the policy ends
  • No payout is made if you outlive the term

Example: Take a 20-year policy for £2,000 per month. If you pass away in year 5, your family receives £2,000 a month for the remaining 15 years.
 

With our thorough FCA-regulated advice, you're in safe hands from start to finish.

 

How It Differs from Other Life Cover

Unlike a lump-sum life insurance policy, Family Income Benefit in Cambridgeshire or Hertfordshire provides regular, structured payments. This helps families budget effectively and reduces the risk of a lump sum being used too quickly or unwisely.

Why Do People Choose Family Income Benefit?

Families across Hertfordshire and Cambridgeshire often choose this option to:

  • Offer steady financial support to dependants
  • Replace a main income earner's salary
  • Provide manageable monthly payments
  • Avoid the pressure of relying solely on savings or state benefits
  • Achieve cost-effectiveness compared to some lump-sum life insurance options

Things to Consider When Taking Out Family Income Benefit

Before securing Family Income Benefit:

  • The income payments stop at the end of the policy, even if dependants still need support
  • The earlier a claim is made, the greater the total paid
  • Policies can be arranged for single or joint lives
  • They can be written in trust, helping with inheritance planning

A family income benefit adviser in Hertfordshire or Cambridgeshire can clarify these considerations and find a policy to match your needs.
