Incontestability Clause

An incontestability clause precludes insurance carriers from inquiring into representations made on the policy application once the policy’s incontestability period has lapsed.  Typically, the incontestability period will last for two years from the effective date of the policy.  Once this time period has expired, the insurance company loses the ability to rescind the policy based on representations made in the policy application’s paperwork.
