Death benefits receive favourable tax treatment depending on who receives the benefit and how it is paid. Death benefits paid as a lump sum to your dependants are tax free. Death benefits paid to non dependants could be taxed. For example a benefit paid to your children who are over the age of 18years and who are not financially dependent upon you.
