No, death benefits forwarded to the beneficiary aren't considered as his income and IRS 1099 form is to show income from sources other than wage. Death benefit from a life insurance policy comes without tax consequences.

I would think that there would be often a 1099 issued. This isn't for the death benefit. It is for the interest that is earned on the death benefit between the time of death and the claim being paid.
