NEW QUESTION # 52
Arthur is a 79-year-old long-term care (LTC) policyholder whose daughter, Sheila, visits daily tohelp him get dressed and prepare meals. Sheila wants him to enter a nursing home because he is unable to dress himself.
Though he cannot prepare his own meals, he can still feed himself, and once undressed, he can wash himself, seated in the bathtub.
Is Arthur eligible to receive LTC benefits?
- A. Yes, Arthur is eligible because he cannot dress himself or prepare his own meals.
- B. No, Arthur is not eligible because even though he cannot prepare his own meals, he is able to feed himself.
- C. No, because except for dressing himself, Arthur can perform all the other activities of daily living.
- D. Yes, Arthur is eligible because he is unable to dress himself and he must sit in the bathtub to wash himself.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Arthur's eligibility for Long-Term Care (LTC) benefits depends on his inability to perform a specified number ofActivities of Daily Living (ADLs), which generally include bathing, dressing, feeding, toileting, transferring, and continence. In most LTC policies, to qualify for benefits, the policyholder typically needs to be unable to perform at least two of these ADLs. In Arthur's case, while he requires help with dressing and meal preparation, he can perform other ADLs such as feeding himself and bathing (with some assistance).
This indicates that he can perform enough ADLs to make him ineligible under the typical LTC requirements.
Therefore, option D is correct, as his inability to dress alone does not meet the usual threshold required for benefit eligibility under most LTC policies.
NEW QUESTION # 53
Surjit and Rajbir get married in 2010 and Surjit names Rajbir as the irrevocable beneficiary of his life insurance contract. In 2017, the couple divorces amiably and Surjit meets with his insurance representative, Ivan, to review his plans. Surjit tells Ivan that he would like to keep Rajbir as his beneficiary. What should Ivan counsel his client to do?
- A. Surjit does not need to do anything as Rajbir is already the named beneficiary.
- B. Surjit should name a different beneficiary now that he is divorced.
- C. Surjit should once again designate Rajbir as the beneficiary.
- D. Surjit cannot make any changes to the policy without Rajbir's consent as she is the irrevocable beneficiary of his policy.
Answer: D
Explanation:
When a beneficiary is designated as irrevocable, the policyholder cannot make changes to the beneficiary designation or make other policy modifications that impact the irrevocable beneficiary's rights without their consent. According to LLQP standards, an irrevocable beneficiary has a vested interest in the policy, and any alterations require their permission.
In this case, Surjit would need Rajbir's consent to change or remove her as the beneficiary, regardless of their divorce. This stipulation upholds the binding nature of an irrevocable designation, ensuring that changes can only be made with the beneficiary's agreement to protect their rights in the policy.
NEW QUESTION # 54
Insurer ABC analyzed the disability claim of Monique, who says she is going through a serious depression that is keeping her from being able to do her work. Unfortunately, the insurer believes that Monique is fit to work. She asked the insurer to revise her position but has received a final letter from the insurer refusing to pay her short-term disability benefits. What recourse does Monique have if she does not want to consult a lawyer just yet?
- A. Lodge a complaint with the OmbudService for Life & Health Insurance and the AMF
- B. Lodge a complaint with the Canadian Life and Health Insurance Association
- C. Lodge a complaint with the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions
- D. Lodge a complaint with the Chambre de la securite financiere and the syndic
Answer: A
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation: Monique seeks non-legal recourse after her disability claim denial. The OmbudService for Life & Health Insurance (OLHI) is a free, independent service resolving disputes between policyholders and insurers across Canada, including Quebec. The Autorite des marches financiers (AMF) oversees Quebec's insurance industry and handles consumer complaints (Distribution Act, Section 103). Option C combines these accessible options, ideal before legal action. Option A (Chambre de la securite financiere and syndic) targets advisor misconduct, not insurer decisions. Option B (OSFI) regulates insurer solvency federally, not individual claims. Option D (CLHIA) is an industry association without complaint authority. The Ethics manual encourages advisors to inform clients of dispute resolution options like OLHI and AMF.

NEW QUESTION # 55
On June 5, Karl completed an application for critical illness coverage and paid an annual premiumof $1,250.
On June 25, the underwriter approved the policy under standard conditions and sent it to the agent, who received it on July 7. The agent contacted the client on August 8 and the date for delivery was set at August
10. On August 12, Karl learns that he will lose his job at the end of the month. As such, he decides to cancel the policy, returning it to the insurer on August 15. What is the rule governing Karl's right to have his premium refunded?
- A. He is entitled to a refund, because the representative delivered the policy more than 10 days after its issuance.
- B. He is not entitled to a refund, because the policy was approved more than 30 days ago.
- C. He is entitled to a refund, because the policy was returned within 10 days of delivery.
- D. He is not entitled to a refund, because the application was signed more than 30 days ago.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:
The 10-day "free look" period starts upon delivery (August 10); Karl returned it August 15 (within 5 days), entitling him to a refund (Chapter 7:Insurance Recommendation, Contract, and Service Needs).
Option A: Correct; within 10 days.
Option B-D: Incorrect; refund tied to delivery, not approval or application.
Reference: LLQP Accident and Sickness Insurance Manual, Chapter 7:Insurance Recommendation, Contract, and Service Needs.
NEW QUESTION # 56
Group insurance and group annuity representative Zaheb recently sold a group insurance contract to Alumo Inc., a company that employs about 50 plant employees. This is the first time the company offers such a plan.
The employees are asking the company questions about how the prescription drug plan works. They are especially surprised to see that the plan covers very few of the brand name drugs often prescribed by their physicians. What should Zaheb do?
- A. Let Alumo answer its employees' questions about the prescription drug plan because it is best placed to understand their concerns.
- B. Put an employee information program in place to explain the rules of the prescription drug plan.
- C. Notify the insurer because it alone is able to explain the prescription drug plan rules to the employees.
- D. Recommend that the employees consult the Medical Information Bureau's (MIB) official website, which explains how prescription drug plans work.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:
Zaheb, as the agent, should educate employees via an information program to clarify coverage (e.g., generic vs. brand name drugs) (Chapter 8:Group Plan Specifics).
Option A: Incorrect; Alumo lacks expertise.
Option B: Incorrect; MIB doesn't explain plans.
Option C: Correct; agent's role.
Option D: Incorrect; insurer delegates to agent.
Reference: LLQP Accident and Sickness Insurance Manual, Chapter 8:Group Plan Specifics.
NEW QUESTION # 57
Eloise has critical illness coverage through her group insurance plan at work. She is 54 years old, in excellent health, and is planning to retire soon. She meets with Sonia, her insurance agent, to plan her retirement and to make sure she will still be covered in the event of critical illness. To make sure she is not a burden on her family, Eloise would also like to receive monthly benefits in the event she is placed in an assisted living facility. What should Sonia tell her?
- A. That her critical illness coverage will end when she retires and that she should consider purchasing individual critical illness and long-term care insurance.
- B. That when she retires, she should purchase individual disability insurance, which would give herthe coverage required in the event of critical illness.
- C. That the critical illness coverage under her group plan is the least expensive and that the insurer will have to give her the option of converting it into individual insurance when she retires.
- D. That the critical illness coverage under her group plan will end when she retires and that she should consider purchasing individual coverage.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:
Group critical illness (CI) coverage typically ends upon retirement unless a conversion option is explicitly offered, which is rare (Chapter 8:Group Plan Specifics). Eloise needs CI for lump-sum protection and long- term care (LTC) insurance for monthly benefits in an assisted living facility (Chapter 4:Insurance to Protect Savings).
Option A: Incorrect; group CI rarely converts to individual CI, and it doesn't address LTC needs.
Option B: Partially correct but incomplete; it misses LTC for assisted living.
Option C: Correct; CI ends at retirement, requiring individual CI, and LTC insurance meets her assisted living goal.
Option D: Incorrect; disability insurance replaces income, not CI or LTC benefits.

8:Group Plan Specifics.
NEW QUESTION # 58
After completing a thorough needs analysis, Dimitri, an insurance agent with Health Assure, recommends that his client Chandler purchase a deferred annuity contract and contribute monthly to a balanced segregated fund to build up savings that Chandler can use as retirement income. Dimitri explains to Chandler that the type of annuity contract he is recommending has two distinct phases.
What are those two phases?
- A. Capitalization and payment.
- B. Accumulation and capitalization.
- C. Immediate and deferred.
- D. Accumulation and investment.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Deferred annuities have two main phases: the accumulation phase and the investment phase. During the accumulation phase, the client makes contributions to the annuity, which are then invested to grow over time.
Once the accumulation phase ends, the funds can be converted into an income stream during retirement.
Dimitri's recommendation aligns with the structure of a deferred annuity, where Chandler contributes over time (accumulation) before receiving regular payments (investment), often providing a reliable retirement income. The LLQP training material details how deferred annuities offer tax-deferred growth during the accumulation phase, which then transitions into regular income in retirement.
NEW QUESTION # 59
Ae-Cha starts working for the manufacturer, Premier Vibe Inc., a company that offers its employees group insurance with Sprout Life Insurance. Ae-Cha meets with Devon, the group insurance representative, and learns that her group plan includes $75,000 of life insurance coverage. Ae-Cha would like to know who designates the beneficiary on the life insurance.
- A. Devon
- B. Sprout Life
- C. Premier Vibe Inc.
- D. Ae-Cha
Answer: D
Explanation:
In group life insurance plans, the employee (insured individual) is typically responsible for designating their own beneficiary. Although Premier Vibe Inc. sponsors the group plan, it is Ae-Cha, as the policyholder, who has the right to choose her beneficiary for the life insurance coverage provided under the plan. The employer or the insurer does not decide the beneficiary; this decision remains solely with the insured employee.
NEW QUESTION # 60
Arianna, a healthy 61-year-old university professor, is retiring this year and wants to transfer the funds she accumulated in her registered retirement savings plan (RRSP) into an annuity. She is looking at different options and would like to know which of the following annuities will pay the highest monthly benefit.
- A. An indexed annuity
- B. A life annuity with a 10-year guarantee
- C. A life annuity
- D. A joint life annuity
Answer: C
Explanation:
A life annuity typically provides the highest monthly benefit compared to other annuity types because it does not include additional guarantees or features that reduce the payout, such as a guarantee period or indexing.
Since Arianna is healthy and seeking the highest monthly income, a standard life annuity, which pays a fixed income for life without any additional features, will maximize her monthly benefit. LLQP resources confirm that adding options like guarantees or indexing typically lowers the monthly payout due to the insurer's increased liability.
Option B would provide a lower benefit than a standard life annuity because of the 10-year guarantee. Option C (Indexed annuity) would have lower initial payments due to the cost of inflation protection, and Option D (Joint life annuity) would provide less income as it is designed to continue payments to a surviving spouse.
NEW QUESTION # 61
Brian is a machinist. For the past seven years, he's worked for a company that offers a group benefits plan.
Under that plan, the premiums for long-term disability coverage are entirely paid by the employees. Last year, an injury forced Brian to stop working for eight months. After a four-month waiting period, during which he collected Employment Insurance (EI) benefits, Brian received long-term disability (LTD) benefits from the group plan's insurer. Brian is now preparing his income tax return and wonders about the tax implications of the different benefits he received while on disability. What statement accurately describes the tax treatment of Brian's EI and LTD benefits?
- A. The EI benefits are tax-free, the LTD benefits are taxable income.
- B. The EI benefits are taxable income, the LTD benefits are tax-free.
- C. Both the EI benefits and LTD benefits are taxable income.
- D. Both the EI benefits and LTD benefits are tax-free.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:
EI benefits are taxable as income under Canadian law. LTD benefits are tax-free if the employee pays 100% of the premiums, as in Brian's case (Chapter 8:Group Plan Specifics).
Option A: Incorrect; LTD is tax-free here.
Option B: Correct; EI taxable, LTD tax-free.
Option C: Incorrect; EI is taxable.
Option D: Incorrect; EI is taxable.
Reference: LLQP Accident and Sickness Insurance Manual, Chapter 8:Group Plan Specifics.
NEW QUESTION # 62
Edna is a 62-year-old widow living in Quebec. She meets with Yolanda, her insurance agent. Ednaworked part-time her whole life as a seamstress and has no savings. Her husband Donald had been working as a greeter at the local box store until his death 2 months ago at the age of 67. Since his passing, Edna has been struggling financially. She would like to know which of the following organizations will immediately pay her a benefit?
- A. Canada Pension Plan (CPP) survivor benefits.
- B. Old Age Security (OAS) allowance for surviving spouse.
- C. Workers' Compensation.
- D. She will not receive any benefit.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Since Edna was married to Donald, she is eligible to receiveCanada Pension Plan (CPP) survivor benefits, which provide a monthly benefit to surviving spouses. Old Age Security (OAS) survivor allowance may not apply directly here as it is conditional and may not provide immediate benefits like the CPP does in this situation. Workers' Compensation does not apply as it pertains to workplace injuries, and since Donald was not injured on the job, it does not cover Edna's situation.Therefore,Option Cis correct.
NEW QUESTION # 63
Cory is a recent college graduate who has just been hired by a marketing firm in an entry-level position. His employer group benefits only cover a short-term disability to a maximum of 119 days. He meets with an insurance agent to talk about disability coverage. To fully cover his salary, he would require a $3,000 monthly benefit. In reviewing options, he thinks that his ideal coverage of a 30-day waiting period and a "to age 65" benefit period comes at a cost that exceeds his budget. What recommendation should the insurance agent make to Cory regarding coverage?
- A. Wait until his income has increased and he can afford the premium.
- B. Reduce the monthly benefit to reduce the monthly premium.
- C. Shorten the benefit period to reduce the monthly premium.
- D. Extend the waiting period to reduce the monthly premium.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:
Extending the waiting period (e.g., to 120 days) aligns with his 119-day STD coverage, reducing premiums while maintaining $3,000/month to age 65 (Chapter 7:Insurance Recommendation, Contract, and Service Needs).
Option A: Correct; cost-effective.
Option B: Incorrect; weakens coverage.
Option C: Incorrect; reduces protection.
Option D: Incorrect; delays coverage.
Reference: LLQP Accident and Sickness Insurance Manual, Chapter 7:Insurance Recommendation, Contract, and Service Needs.
NEW QUESTION # 64
Gino, an insurance of persons representative, is cleaning his office and going through old files. He comes across a file from a former client, Nathan, who owned a 20-year term insurance policy that was cancelled 3 years ago. Nathan now has a different representative and Gino no longer has any contact with him. Gino would like to know if he can destroy Nathan's file.
Which of the following options is CORRECT?
- A. Yes, because Nathan cancelled his policy 3 years ago.
- B. Yes, because Nathan transferred his affairs to another representative.
- C. No, because he must wait until the file has been closed for at least 5 years.
- D. No, because he must wait until the file has been closed for at least 7 years.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Insurance records must generally be retained for a minimum period to comply with provincial regulatory requirements, which is often five years from the date of termination. This helps ensure compliance with record-keeping mandates and allows for any legal, financial, or administrative review if needed. Gino is obligated to retain Nathan's file until it has been closed for at least five years, despite the change in representation or policy status.
NEW QUESTION # 65
Claudie's mother has been the policyholder and beneficiary of an insurance policy on the life of Claudie since she was five years of age. Claudie is now the mother of a three-month-old boy. Claudie would like for Marc- Andre, her de facto spouse, to be the beneficiary of the policy. What steps need to be taken in order for this to happen?
- A. As the beneficiary, Claudie's mother must make a written request for a change of beneficiary and designate Marc-Andre
- B. As the insured, Claudie must make a written request for a change of beneficiary and designateMarc- Andre
- C. As the policyholder, Claudie's mother must make a written request for a change of beneficiary and designate Marc-Andre
- D. As the insured, Claudie must make a written request for a change of policyholder and designate Marc- Andre
Answer: C
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation: In life insurance, the policyholder owns the contract and has the authority to change the beneficiary, per the Civil Code of Quebec (Article 2425). Claudie's mother, as the policyholder, must submit a written request to the insurer to designate Marc-Andre as the new beneficiary, making option A correct. Option B is incorrect because the beneficiary (Claudie's mother) has no control over changing the designation-only the policyholder does. Option C is wrong, as the insured (Claudie) has no inherent right to alter the beneficiary unless she is also the policyholder, which she is not. Option D misstates the goal-Claudie wants a beneficiary change, not a policyholder change. The Ethics and Professional Practice manual stresses that advisors must ensure clients understand policy ownership rights and procedures for beneficiary changes.
References: Civil Code of Quebec, Article 2425; Ethics and Professional Practice (Civil Law) Manual, Section on Policy Ownership and Beneficiary Designations.
NEW QUESTION # 66
Goran and Tanja married two years ago. Last year, they purchased and moved into a three-bedroom house in the suburbs. The current balance on their mortgage is $655,000. They meet with Ljubomir, an insurance agent, to purchase a joint term life insurance policy to cover the mortgage. When Ljubomir asks about their existing coverage, Goran shares that he has none. Tanja explains that she owns a universal life (UL) policy with a level death benefit of $50,000 and a cash surrender value (CSV) of $5,000, purchased 6 years ago from another agent. Tanja would like to surrender her UL policy and use the $5,000 CSV to pay for a trip to Europe. What additional information about Tanja's UL policy does Ljubomir need to collect?
- A. The dividends and paid-up additions.
- B. The premiums upon renewal.
- C. The adjusted cost basis (ACB) and surrender charges of the policy's CSV.
- D. The investment vehicle of the policy's CSV.
Answer: C
Explanation:
When considering surrendering a universal life (UL) policy, it is essential to understand the tax implications and any costs associated with surrender. Theadjusted cost basis (ACB)helps determine the taxable portion of the policy's cash surrender value (CSV) because any amount received above the ACB may be subject to tax.
Additionally,surrender chargescould reduce the CSV received upon surrender. Therefore, Ljubomir needs to collect both the ACB and any surrender charges applicable to Tanja's policy. These factors will help Tanja make an informed decision regarding the net amount she would receive from surrendering the policy and the potential tax liability.
NEW QUESTION # 67
Everett is an insurance of persons representative who works exclusively for Moon Life Insurance. He wants to leave the company and become an independent representative. He knows that before he branches out on his own, he needs to ensure he has sufficient liability insurance.
Which of the following statements about his professional liability insurance is CORRECT?
- A. This insurance covers gross faults committed by an insurance representative.
- B. If a contract has a deductible, it may not exceed $20,000.
- C. Professional liability insurance covers fraud or misappropriation.
- D. His liability insurance must have coverage of not less than $1,500,000 per claim.
Answer: B
Explanation:
For an insurance representative such as Everett who intends to transition to an independent role,maintaining adequate professional liability insurance is crucial. According to LLQP guidelines, the requirements for liability insurance coverage mandate that if the policy includes a deductible, it cannot exceed $20,000 per claim. This limit helps ensure that insurance representatives can reasonably cover the deductible amount without facing significant financial hardship in case of a claim.
Regarding the other answer choices:
* A liability insurance policy is typically required to have a minimum coverage of $1,000,000 per claim, not $1,500,000.
* Professional liability insurance does not cover gross negligence, fraud, or intentional misconduct such as fraud or misappropriation. It is designed to cover errors, omissions, and negligence within the scope of professional duties, provided they are not intentional or fraudulent acts.
Therefore, option B accurately reflects LLQP stipulations regarding the deductible limit on professional liability insurance for insurance representatives.
NEW QUESTION # 68
Kirill purchases a $250,000 permanent life insurance policy on the life of his grandson, Dmitry. Kirill asks his wife Katya to pay the policy premiums and names his daughter, Natalya, as the subrogated policyholder. He does not name a beneficiary. Subsequently, Kirill dies without a will.
Who will become the new policyholder?
- A. Natalya.
- B. The executor of Kirill's estate.
- C. Katya.
- D. Dmitry.
Answer: A
Explanation:
In the case of life insurance where a subrogated policyholder is designated, that individual (in this case, Natalya) would assume ownership rights of the policy upon the original policyholder's death. Since Kirill named Natalya as the subrogated policyholder, she would become the new policyholder upon his death, regardless of the fact that Kirill did not have a will. This designation bypasses the estate, meaning the executor or other family members (like Katya) do not assume ownership. This outcome aligns with LLQP guidelines on succession planning and the assignment of life insurance ownership.
NEW QUESTION # 69
Paola, an employee at Horizon Pharmaceuticals, was recently diagnosed with depression. She is unable to work and is receiving tax-free disability insurance benefits due to her condition. Paola is deeply indebted, and her creditors have been garnishing a portion of her pay for the last year. She is worried about her creditors also garnishing her disability benefit.
Can her disability benefits be seized by her creditors?
- A. Yes, but creditors can only seize up to 50% of her benefit.
- B. No, because the benefits are tax-free.
- C. Yes, disability insurance benefits are seizable.
- D. No, because she is disabled.
Answer: D
Explanation:
In Quebec, disability insurance benefits are generally protected from seizure by creditors. This protection is designed to ensure that disabled individuals retain access to essential income for their well-being during their period of disability. Since Paola's benefits are designated as disability income, they are exempt from garnishment.
This aligns with Quebec's laws on disability and insurance benefits, which prioritize financial protection for individuals facing health-related work absences. Thus, her benefits remain protected, regardless of her tax status or existing debts.
NEW QUESTION # 70
Luc is married and the father of two teenagers. His annual salary is $60,000. His wife Marie works part-time with an annual salary of $24,000. The family's monthly expenses are $3,500. Luc and Marie are not members of any group benefit plan. What is the minimum monthly amount of disability insurance coverage that Luc needs to cover his risk of disability?
- A. $1,500
- B. $3,500
- C. $5,000
Answer: B
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:
Luc earns $60,000/year ($5,000/month), Marie earns $24,000/year ($2,000/month), totaling $7,000/month.
Expenses are $3,500/month. If Luc is disabled, Marie's $2,000 leaves a $1,500 shortfall. However, Luc needs
$3,500/month to fully replace expenses, assuming Marie's income isn't relied upon (Chapter 2:Insurance to Protect Income).
Option A: Insufficient; $1,500 + $2,000 = $3,500 but assumes Marie's income.
Option B: Correct; $3,500 ensures full coverage.
Option C: Excessive; over-insures.
Reference: LLQP Accident and Sickness Insurance Manual, Chapter 2:Insurance to Protect Income.
NEW QUESTION # 71
Nikolai owns a guaranteed renewable individual disability policy that he purchased last year. The policy pays a monthly benefit of $3,000 and includes a 4-month waiting period and a 5-year benefit period. Today, he is diagnosed with prostate cancer and learns he must undergo 6 months of radiation.
When should he contact the insurance company to inform them of his diagnosis?
- A. As soon as his waiting period is over.
- B. As soon as he receives his diagnosis.
- C. Within 30 days of receiving his diagnosis.
- D. As soon as his treatment finishes.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Nikolai should inform his insureras soon as he receives his diagnosis. Prompt notification is crucial as it ensures that his claim process can begin, including the assessment of eligibility,documentation, and verification. Additionally, reporting the diagnosis early helps the insurer monitor his waiting period of four months and plan for benefit payments starting at the end of this period. LLQP materials recommend early communication with the insurer to avoid delays in claim processing.
NEW QUESTION # 72
When Tim and Patricia were common-law spouses, they met with an insurance agent, Aelia, to purchase life insurance policies of $100,000 each, naming each other as beneficiaries of their policies. Five years later, Patricia leaves Tim to be with her personal trainer, Thomas. A year later, Patricia and Thomas marry, and Patricia gives birth to their baby, Cedrick. Tragically, just before Cedrick's 12th birthday, Patricia dies in a fiery car crash. She never modified her beneficiary designation.
Shortly after the crash, Thomas calls Aelia to inform her that Patricia has died and that he wants to claim the death benefit on her life insurance policy.
Who will receive the $100,000 death benefit?
- A. Thomas
- B. Tim
- C. Cedrick
- D. Patricia's estate
Answer: B
Explanation:
Since Patricia did not modify the beneficiary designation on her life insurance policy after separating from Tim, he remains the named beneficiary. Under LLQP guidelines, the original beneficiary designation stands unless explicitly changed by the policyholder. This means that,despite Patricia's remarriage and the birth of her child Cedrick, Tim remains the beneficiary and will receive the $100,000 death benefit.
Beneficiary designations on life insurance policies are not automatically altered by life events such as marriage or the birth of a child. Therefore, in the absence of any updates, Tim remains the beneficiary as per Patricia's original designation.
NEW QUESTION # 73
Emma, an employee at MagicLand, is part of the company's group registered retirement savings plan (RRSP).
During her tenure, she accumulated over $70,000 in the plan and all of her contributions are invested in segregated funds. She meets with Jun to invest in an individual segregated fund. Jun tells her that there are some differences between group and individual segregated funds.
How are Emma's group segregated funds DIFFERENT from an individual segregated fund?
- A. They have lower management expense ratios (MERs).
- B. They charge switching fees.
- C. They offer death benefit guarantees at a special rate.
- D. They have higher sales charges.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Group segregated funds typically have lower Management Expense Ratios (MERs) than individual segregated funds because group plans benefit from economies of scale and pooled investment options. LLQP highlights that group plans often have reduced fees compared to individual plans due to collective investment and reduced administrative costs.
Options A and B are incorrect as group plans typically feature lower costs and don't often charge switching fees. Option C is incorrect as individual segregated funds typically have more flexible death benefit guarantee options, not special rates in group plans.
NEW QUESTION # 74
Planet Source decides to implement a defined contribution pension plan (DCPP) for its 75 employees. The company's president appoints Josie, the human resources director, as the plan administrator.
Which of the following BEST describes Josie's responsibility as a plan administrator?
- A. To set the benefit structure
- B. To manage the pension plan
- C. To address funding shortfalls
- D. To amend the pension plan
Answer: B
Explanation:
As a plan administrator for a defined contribution pension plan (DCPP), Josie's primary responsibility is to manage the pension plan, which includes overseeing day-to-day operations, ensuring regulatory compliance, and handling communications with plan members. According to LLQP, plan administrators are tasked with ensuring the effective management and administration of the plan, rather than setting benefit structures or addressing funding issues, which are typically responsibilities of the employer.
Options B, C, and D describe responsibilities typically held by the employer or plan sponsor, not the administrator.
NEW QUESTION # 75
Mordecai's life insurance lapsed four years after the policy was issued because he failed to make premium payments. The insurer reinstated the policy several months later when he made the required payments and provided the medical and financial information the insurer required. Twelve months later, Mordecai commits suicide and his beneficiaries ask Larry, his insurance agent, whether the claim will be paid. What should Larry tell the beneficiaries?
- A. The claim will be paid, because paying the death benefit would be consistent with public order and community standards.
- B. The claim will be paid, because the incontestability clause ended two years after the policy was issued.
- C. The claim will be rejected, because the suicide exclusion begins with the date the insurer reinstates the policy.
- D. The claim will be rejected, because Mordecai's poor mental health was, in all likelihood, a preexisting condition.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed in Depth Explanation with Exact Extract from Documents and Guides:
TheIFSE Ethics and Professional Practice Course (Common Law)explains that life insurance policies typically include a suicide clause, which denies the death benefit if the insured commits suicide within a specified period-usually two years-from the policy's issue date or reinstatement date. When a policy lapses and is reinstated, the suicide exclusion period restarts from the reinstatement date, not the original issue date.
In this case, Mordecai's policy lapsed after four years, was reinstated, and he committed suicide 12 months (less than two years) later. The incontestability clause (which prevents insurers from denying claims based on misstatements after two years) does not override the suicide exclusion, making A incorrect. Public order (B) is irrelevant, and there's no evidence of a preexisting condition (D) affecting the suicide clause. Thus, Larry should inform the beneficiaries that the claim will be rejected due to the suicide exclusion restarting upon reinstatement, making C correct.

NEW QUESTION # 76
Jessica is 61 years old and has $460,000 invested in a registered retirement savings plan (RRSP). She is retiring due to health issues that are expected to reduce her life expectancy and will prevent her from working until she is 65. She would like to transfer her RRSP funds into an annuity that will pay her monthly benefits for the rest of her life.
Which of the following annuities is the BEST option for her to purchase?
- A. Life annuity.
- B. Term annuity to age 90.
- C. Life annuity with a 20-year guaranteed period.
- D. Impaired life annuity.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Due to Jessica's reduced life expectancy, an impaired life annuity would provide higher monthlypayments than a standard life annuity. This type of annuity takes her medical condition into account, offering larger payouts based on a shorter expected payment period. LLQP resources recommend impaired life annuities for individuals with significant health issues, as these provide better income compared to other types.
Options A and C offer a fixed period but don't maximize monthly income for someone with a reduced life expectancy. Option B would provide a standard income for life but not the potentially enhanced income from an impaired annuity.
