Life insurance that can be cashed out is life insurance with a cash value. This is Whole Life or Universal Life, although not every Whole or Universal Life policy has cash value at any given time.
Term policies can only be cashed out if they are Return of Premium (ROP) Term. And you must wait until at least half the term has passed before you can get any cash when surrendering an ROP term policy.
There are two main types of life insurance. The first is term life insurance which has no cash value. Think of it as renting. The second type of life insurance is cash value life insurance. The most popular go by names like, whole life, universal life, indexed universal life and variable life. All of which have cash value that builds with time. If you have one of these types of plans, look for the pages marked "illustrations". You will find a cash value column explaining how much cash is built up in a given year. Most policies allow you to take a "cash loan" against them and keep your coverage in force. You may also cash out completely or roll the cash value to another plan. You will find the average policy will not have cash value until coverage has been in force for about 5 years.

What type of insurance can you cash out? Well, those with cash values would be the first to come to mind. Some cash value policies would allow you to take the full amount shown as cash values. Others, may have a surrender table that means you would forfeit some of those cash values if you are removing funds too early.
