What a pleasure dealing with Ummi, who took all the pain out of purchasing Travel Insurance for my wife and I, who are both 80 year old Seniors. Sensitive and yet enquiring, Ummi guided us through the minefield of questions with the competant ease of an expert. Ummi was responsive to any unintended omissions and made sure there were no loose ends that could disqualify any future claim. We go on Holiday knowing that we have been professionally prepared with cover for Medical emergencies, if they should arise.

I just finished getting a tailored insurance package with the help of Ummi. I really appreciated the attention to detail and how knowlegable she was on the various packages. Ummi was able to get us an annual package for me and my wife that focused on our need for Trip Cancellation/Inturruption and also a single trip comprehensive package for our 3 grandchildren that will be traveling with us on our next trip. It was a pleasent experience. Ummi detailed the options and made recommendation that ensured we had the coverage we needed at the best possible price. This was all done over the phone and email and we received the comple package immediately after the purchase in our email. Thanks Ummi

Our purchase of Allianz Emergency Medical Insurance through Alliance Income Services Corp was a breeze. Ummi and Mariam was a pleasure to work with. They were both very patient, knowledgeable, and efficient in presenting the various options available to us. Mariam did a lot of leg work comparing several insurance companies just to find a plan that suit our needs. Ummi then completed the processing of the policy effortlessly and made the process seamless. I would highly recommend anyone who needs an insurance coverage to speak to especially this two ladies.

I had a top notch experience with this insurance broker. Eric Clementi was the person that helped me from the day that I asked for a quote online. He was very thorough with explaining every minor details that might be misunderstood between the client and the provider. Eric is very professional with his tone of voice which makes a potential client feel at ease. Nonetheless, I’ve tried different insurance broker, their monthly fees are way above the average, Alliance income Services Corp has the most decent fee for a family of five… it’s a bang for the buck kind of thing. Truly recommend this company. 👍

She demonstrates a quick grasp of what people actually need (or don't need) and points quickly to available options. She is actually the only Insurance Agent I feel like calling back again. Great work Artmiz !!

Why Do I Need Life Insurance?

Life Insurance safeguards your dependents from financial hardships following your passing. Life Insurance is a necessity if your spouse and children, or other individuals you care about, depend on you financially. Your policy provides you with peace of mind that in the unfortunate event of your death, your loved ones will be able to maintain their quality of life.

Depending on your chosen coverage, your Life Insurance policy can help offset or completely cover the costs of a funeral and any debts you may have, as well as provide your beneficiary with a source of income.

As an added benefit, if you need access to funds, certain policies will allow you to withdraw your accumulated premium payments. However, the amount paid out in the event of your passing will decrease if you do not repay the withdrawn amount.

What type of Life Insurance should I get?

There two main types of Life insurance policies: Permanent Life Insurance and Term Life Insurance.

Permanent policies guarantee a pay out to the beneficiary if the insured passes away at any point in time as long as the premiums were paid. On the other hand, term policies pay out benefits only if the insured passes away within the agreed upon length of their policy.

Can I name multiple beneficiaries?

A beneficiary is an individual who receives the cash value of your death benefit. You will be required to name such a person when you purchase your Life Insurance plan. If you so wish, you can name multiple beneficiaries and divide the cash value of your policy among them either equally or according to a set percentage. If a beneficiary passes before you do, you can elect a contingent beneficiary in their stead. You may also choose a charity as a beneficiary.

How much Life Insurance coverage do I need and how much will it cost?

The amount of coverage you need depends on your financial situation and desired benefits for your loved ones. If you are the primary breadwinner and have mortgage debt, financial experts advise to get at least 10 times your annual salary in coverage. Thankfully, increasing the amount of coverage usually does not impact your premiums significantly.

The price of Life Insurance is influenced by the level of coverage and benefits, as well as the age and health situation of the insured individual. Young and healthy Canadians pay as little as $30 in monthly premiums, but rates increase with age and health problems. For this reason, experts suggest purchasing a Life Insurance plan while you are young and healthy.

Types of Life Insurance in Canada

There two main types of Life Insurance policies: Permanent Life Insurance and Term Life Insurance.

Permanent policies guarantee a pay out to the beneficiary if the insured passes away at any point in time as long as the premiums were paid. On the other hand, term policies pay out benefits only if the insured passes away within the agreed upon length of their policy.

Let’s examine the sub-categories of the two types of Life Insurance:

Permanent Life Insurance

Permanent Life Insurance, otherwise known as “whole life insurance”, as it covers you for your whole life. It will sometimes build value over time. With this type of life insurance, your premium is typically guaranteed not to increase.

Term Life Insurance

Term Life Insurance can generally be purchased for up to 30 years. At the end of the agreed upon term, the coverage ends. This type of Life Insurance is generally the least expensive.

Participating Whole Life Insurance

Participating Whole Life Insurance unlocks an investment component, allowing the insured to earn dividends, and increase coverage. Premiums from participating policies are pooled together and invested by the insurer, increasing their cash value.

Universal Life Insurance

Universal Life Insurance policies often have variable premiums that increase along with policyholder’s age. Such policies share the same characteristics as Participating Whole Life Insurance plans while providing extra flexibility. However, the policyholder is responsible for their investing which will influence the cash value of their policy.

How to Save Money on Life Insurance?

Thankfully, Policy Rates takes care of it for you! When you request a quote through our website, we check what rates you can get from every major Canadian insurer.

Policy Rates provides you with the lowest rates for the level of coverage that you desire from top insurance companies.

Are You Healthy?

If you are healthy and can qualify for regular life insurance, apply for a fully underwritten policy to pay significantly lower premiums.

When Is Your Birthday?

Your age bracket impacts your premiums. Avoid higher rates by purchasing a policy before your next birthday.

Are You a Smoker?

Smokers can pay up to a 100% more for the same level of coverage. Consider quitting for a considerable reduction in your premium payments.

Renewing Your Policy?

Rates can change over time. Instead of renewing your plan, shop around for a new policy or consider converting your term plan to permanent Life Insurance.
