Which provision allows the policyowner the right to renew the coverage at the expiration date without evidence of insurability; based on insured's current age?

• A. Renewable provision
• B. Convertible provision
• C. Annual renewable term
• D. Permanent life insurance

Answer: (A)

The renewal provision is a feature that lets you extend term coverage when the policy term ends without having to show proof of insurability. When you renew, the premium is based on the insured’s current age, so it typically rises as you get older. This directly addresses continuing coverage after expiration, even if health has changed since the policy started. The other concepts don’t fit as cleanly: converting a term policy to permanent coverage involves changing the policy itself and underwriting isn’t the focus at renewal; and a specific form like annual renewable term applies a yearly renewal structure rather than a single expiration renewal. Permanent life insurance is a type of policy, not a renewal option.
