Income Annuities

A deferred income annuity is permanent. Owner has no access to premium, which converts to an income payout stream if at least one annuitant is alive on the Income Date. There is no cash value and the annuity can’t be surrendered. Contract terms, such as payment amount and frequency, cannot be changed, except under limited circumstances as described in the contract. A deferred income annuity should not be purchased if access may be needed to any of the premium for living expenses or other purposes. If a payout for life or two lives is selected, whether the payout received will be greater or less than the premium paid will depend on how long the annuitant(s) lives.

Flexible Premium Deferred Paid-Up Annuity Contract Series ICC17 ENT-04 1708 and ENT-04 1708 NY.

An income annuity is permanent. An owner has no access to the premium, which converts to income payouts. A contract has no cash value, no death benefit and can’t be surrendered. Terms such as the payout amounts, timing and rates cannot be changed, unless commutation elected. Payouts end at annuitant death unless certain period or installment refund option elected. Life contingent payout may be less or more than premium based on length of annuitant(s) life. Life and Temporary Life payouts provide no benefit on or after the death of the annuitant(s). The commutation rider is not available in all states. IPO payments are initially lower than a payout option without IPO. IPO payments increase annually and at some point, depending on payout elected and annuitant’s longevity, exceed those received under an option without IPO. If annuitant dies prior to life expectancy, a payee may receive less total income with an IPO than without one.
