Insurance Age: 1
Someone born August 22, 2027 has an actual age of 1y 0m, which rounds to an insurance age of 1 under the "age nearest birthday" convention.
How This Works
Many life insurance policies price premiums using "age nearest birthday" instead of your exact age. If you're more than 6 months past your last birthday (closer to your next one), your insurance age rounds up by one year; otherwise it stays at your last birthday age.
Formula
Example
Someone who turned 40 four months ago has an insurance age of 40 (closer to their last birthday). Someone who turned 40 eight months ago has an insurance age of 41 (closer to their next birthday).
