Hello Jackie,

Actually, the annuities you buy in Denver Colorado CO, or any state for that matter, are generally tax deferred earnings. This is in contrast to most investments which are usually taxed every year. For annuities, the tax is deferred only until you withdraw. However, the taxability of annuity is only based on the investment income upon payout. In other words, when you receive payout for the investment income, it will be taxable. Other than this, there is no tax required even though annuities are considered earnings.

Compared to life insurance, most life insurances in Denver Colorado CO and all States are none taxable. When beneficiaries receive the insurance amount from term life insurance, there is no tax deduction. The reason for non-taxable payout is that the payout is actually given as coverage upon death of the insured. When it comes to whole life insurance – the life insurance with cash accumulation – there is tax only when the amount withdrawn is below minimum withdrawable amount. Other than this, there is no tax deduction required in life insurance coverage and withdrawal above minimum amount. In annuities, there is also no tax. But if the earning is derived from the investment, there is tax. Again to make the answer clear, all annuities are non-taxable. However, if the benefits were derived from the investment income, it is taxable.
