Not sure which message board to post this. Client is purchasing life insurance [contractual protection insurance?] from a Lloyds specialty broker to provide coverage to key executives above what is available in group plan. Client will be owner and pay premiums, but executive will be able to name beneficiary. Can the client impute income to executives based on Table I rates, and then the benefits paid would be received tax free? Or does the full premium amount need to be included as taxable income like a 162 bonus plan? Or will death proceeds be taxable to estate, or as income in respect of a decedent, or taxable to the beneficiary?

Someone is pitching to our CEO a 162 bonus with restrictive endorsement. CEO is all excited about this. But details presented by broker are somewhat lacking so I have some concerns. I understand the endorsement limits access to policy values etc. But: 1. Broker indicated that we can include a vesting schedule, and made it sound like we can still take a current tax deduction. Is that correct? With a vesting schedule, does the employee have current taxable income, or only when vested? What about payroll tax? 2. It seems clean enough if the employee stays until restrictive endorsement is lifted, but what if they don't and have to repay the company? Do we (the company) have taxable income for amount of repayment? If the employee paid tax all along, are they just SOL or can they deduct the amount repaid? If so, I assume the are out the payroll taxes, if those were paid all along? What about company - are we also out the payroll taxes? 3. This seems to be moving pretty fast in our C-Suite and I also have concerns about administration. Broker is a small 3 or 4 employee company. Our CEO is considering this plan for 100-150 employees. What kind of administrative support will we need from the broker? This seems like a long term plan and putting it in the hands of a small mom/pop company concerns me. Thank you
