In the 1970s, life insurance carriers leveraged the tax-free growth of cash value policies, allowing policy owners to withdraw tax-free loans, effectively using them as tax shelters. To address this, Congress enacted the Technical and Miscellaneous Revenue Act of 1988 (TAMRA), which introduced the modified endowment contract (MEC) classification. To avoid MEC status, flexible premium policies must pass the 7-pay test, limiting premium payments over seven years. Any policy exceeding this limit receives MEC status, which is irrevocable and forfeits former tax benefits, though unused premium cap space can accumulate. For example, if a policy has a MEC limit of $5,000 in the first year but is not fully funded, the unused cap can carry over.
