February 25, 1994
IDS Life Insurance Company
IDS Tower 10
Minneapolis, MN 55440-0010
Gentlemen:
Reference is made to the Registration Statements of IDS Life
Accounts F, IZ, JZ, G, H and N on Form N-4 (File No. 33-4173/2-
73114) under the Securities Act of 1933 registering an indefinite
amount of securities pursuant to Rule 24f-2 adopted under the
Investment Company Act of 1940. IDS Life Accounts F, G, H and N
became effective October 11, 1981 and April 30, 1986, respectively.
IDS Life Accounts IZ and JZ became effective on September 20, 1991.
In connection with the Rule 24f-2 Notice for the fiscal year ended
December 31, 1992, I have made such examination of matter of fact
and law as I have deemed appropriate, and am of the opinion that:
1) During the entire period covered by the Rule 24f-2 Notice, IDS
Life Account F, IDS Life Account IZ, IDS Life Account JZ, IDS
Life Account G, IDS Life Account H, and IDS Life Account N,
were each validly created and existing separate accounts of
IDS Life Insurance Company duly authorized, as a unit
investment trust, to issue and sell the securities registered,
and
2) The securities issued, being variable annuity contracts, were
legally issued and non-assessable and require no further
payment by the purchaser.
I hereby consent that the foregoing opinion may be used in
connection with the Rule 24f-2 Notice.
Sincerely,
Mary Ellyn Minenko
Attorney at Law
