If the estate is large enough, estate taxes must be paid on life insurance. So in that respect, the IRS can take life insurance money, through applicable taxes.

An exception would be if the beneficiary filed jointly with the insured, or if the beneficiary owed his/her own money to the IRS.]]></description>
