Question about life insurance qualified or non-qualified

I took a partial withdrawal from the cash value of my private life insurance policy. TurboTax asks if this is a qualified or non-qualified plan and lists life insurance as a non-qualified plan. However it also adds "(if distribution is full payment)".  Full payment of what? Is this considered a non-qualified plan? The plan is still in effect.

Thanks

    A private life insurance policy is a nonqualified plan.

     

    A qualified plan is an employer-provided retirement plan.
