  24. Important Information This presentation outlines the tax treatment of funding long term care insurance premiums through a 1035 exchange from an annuity. However, prior to engaging in a 1035 exchange, your clients should carefully consider a number of factors including the features and crediting rates of their current product, applicable surrender charges, any new surrender charge period on the purchase of a new product, as well as the various features of the new product. • While the assignment of an immediate annuity to fund a long term care insurance policy is in effect, any right to accelerate or commute payments or to receive payments under the assigned portion of the immediate annuity contract will be subject to the assignment. The right to receive annuity payments under any unassigned portion of the immediate annuity contract will not be affected. The assignment will end upon the cessation or suspension of premium under the LTCI policy (whether due to filing of an LTCI claim or termination of the LTCI policy.
