i was having the same misconception that nominee designated as beneficiary
will get the insurance payout just like what Mum had believed in earlier ie
nominee get the money to spend for herself ,no need transfer money to the estate.

If nominee get the money from insurance will go to estate. Then nominee get money from kwsp will hv to go to estate too?
I still believes nominee get the money from insurance for themselves. They may not hv to transfer the money to the estate.
but after reading and from adele and holocene it said clearly sister as nominee would not get the payout for own use,
she must must put back to the estate.
not just sister,
brothers and everyone else also (besides parents spouse children) cannot get that money to spend,
they must put the money back in the estate
so i am surprised to read what
lifebalance post below...

In the context of insurance and KWSP (Employees Provident Fund in Malaysia), the treatment of money received by a nominee differs.
1. Insurance Proceeds:
• Nominee:
The nominee is generally the person designated by the policyholder to receive the insurance proceeds upon the policyholder’s death. In many jurisdictions, the proceeds from an insurance policy go directly to the nominee and do not form part of the deceased’s estate. This means the nominee can typically use the money as they see fit without having to transfer it to the estate.
2. KWSP (Employees Provident Fund):
• Nominee: For KWSP, the nominee is also the individual designated to receive the funds upon the member’s death. In Malaysia, the money from KWSP typically goes directly to the nominee and does not become part of the deceased’s estate. This allows the nominee to receive and use the funds directly, similar to the treatment of insurance proceeds.
is he saying yes nominee get the money to spend no need put back into the estate
why lah not qualified it by saying nominee must be parents spouse children?
