Can my term life insurance rates go up?

Question : Can my term life insurance rates go up?
If I have already bought a term life insurance plan for 20 years a year ago, and I get a new job which is a higher risk job, will my insurance rate go up? If so how much could it go up by?

What ever risk the company took at the time of the application is the risk they keep. If you change jobs, start smoking, get AIDS, whatever, the company can not change the rates that were agreed upon for your contract. Even the renewals rates should be guaranteed (if it’s not a sketchy company), so if you do have to renew your policy for longer than 20 years the rates that are in the orginal policy contract are what they will be…

No, they will stay the same for the 20 years.

Normally Premium won’t change for 20 years term life insurance policy.

But if your new job is a higher risk job, it may attract Occupational extra.

In that case premium will go up.

Extra premium will depends on nature of occupation.

No. As long as you got your risker job after you got the policy and did not lie on the application.

Nope. If you bought 20 year level term, it’s level, for 20 full years.

Not if your policy has a fixed rate. Read the policy provisions.
