U TESTAMENT EN POLISSE BY EGSKEIDING

U TESTAMENT EN POLISSE BY EGSKEIDING

0April 25, 2019April 25, 2019
By BKAudit - AdminIn Estates and Trusts

fhbc_dec_mailer_01_03Ons het in ‘n vorige Artikel die uitwerking van ‘n egskeiding op Testamentêre vererwing bespreek.

In kort bepaal Artikel 2B van die Wet op Testamente (Wet 7 van 1953) dat ‘n geskeide persoon wat binne 3 maande na die egskeiding te sterwe kom se Testament geïmplementeer sal word asof hy sonder ‘n gade te sterwe gekom het, met ander woorde, asof die gade nie daar is om te erf nie.

Die enigste uitsondering op hierdie “drie maande reël” is waar dit duidelik uit die inhoud van die Testament blyk dat die Testateur steeds die bedoeling het om, ten spyte van die egskeiding, steeds sy voormalige gade Testamentêr te bevoordeel.

‘n Testament wat dus 3 maande na ‘n egskeiding nie hersien word nie en moontlik die geskeide gade as enigste erfgenaam benoem sal vankrag wees en vererwing sal in terme van die bepalings van hierdie Testament geskied.

Die noodsaaklikheid om ‘n Testament in die geval van ‘n egskeiding te hersien kan dus nie genoeg beklemtoon word nie.

‘n Ander area wat normaalweg ook nie in die geval van ‘n egskeiding met die nodige erns ondersoek en aangespreek word nie, is lewensversekering.

Man en vrou word meestal oor en weer as begunstigdes op hulle onderskeie lewenspolisse benoem.

In die geval van ‘n egskeiding behoort hierdie benoeming heroorweeg te word, tensy die egskeidingsbevel natuurlik duidelik bepaal dat ‘n betrokke polis(se) aan die voormalige gade begunstig moet word.

Daar ontstaan ook gereeld die verkeerde veronderstelling dat die benoeming van begunstigde op lewenspolisse Testamentêr gewysig kan word.

‘n Testament is ‘n baie kragtige dokument en waarskynlik een van die belangrikste dokumente wat gedurende u leeftyd onderteken word, maar die beguntigde-benoeming op ‘n lewenspolis kan nie by wyse van ‘n Testament herroep word nie.

Indien u voormalige gade dus aangewys is as begunstigde op een van u lewenspolisse en u wysig na u egskeiding u Testament om te bepaal dat die Polis aan u kinders begunstig moet word, sal die benoeming wat by die Versekeringmaatskappy genoteer is geld en sal die Polis dus steeds aan u voormalige gade uitbetaal word.
