NEW QUESTION # 147
Cassie applies for a $100,000 renewable 10-year term insurance policy through Mason, her insurance of persons representative. A month later, when Mason meets with Cassie again to deliver her contract, Cassie says she had to have a biopsy the previous week for a persistent cough. Mason tells her not to worry because the policy is already accepted. He completes the policy delivery. Six months later, Mason receives a call from Cassie's boyfriend informing him that Cassie died of stage 4 throat cancer.
How will the insurance company handle the claim?
- A. The death benefit will be paid because Cassie visited the doctor after filling out the application form.
- B. No death benefit will be paid because Mason did not inform the insurance company of the change in Cassie's insurability.
- C. The death benefit will be paid although Mason was negligent for delivering the policy and he would be liable towards the insurer.
- D. No death benefit will be paid because Cassie died within 2 years of obtaining the policy.
Answer: B
Explanation:
In this scenario, the policy was accepted and delivered to Cassie by Mason before her biopsy, indicating that she was considered insurable at the time of application. However, the insurance policy is subject to a two-year contestability period, during which the insurer can investigate the claim if they believe relevant information regarding the insured's health was omitted or misrepresented.
According to LLQP guidelines, insurance contracts are built on the principle of utmost good faith, requiring that both the client and the representative disclose all material facts that may affect the insurance risk. If the insured's health status changes significantly between the application and delivery of the policy, it is the representative's duty to inform the insurer to reassess the risk.
In this case, Mason, as the insurance representative, failed to disclose Cassie's new health condition, which is considered a material change to her insurability. Under LLQP ethics and practice standards, non-disclosure of this change can result in the insurer denying the claim, as it affected the underwriting decision.
Therefore, due to the lack of disclosure by Mason, the insurance company would have grounds to deny the claim based on this material change in insurability, aligning with LLQP provisions and insurance contract law.

NEW QUESTION # 150
Julie and her spouse, Vincent, have two children, the youngest of whom is 5. Their salaries are roughly equivalent, at around $65,000 each. If Julie loses her spouse, she would receive, each month, $700 from the government plan and an orphan's pension of $230 for each of her two children. She would also receive a monthly pension of $790 from her spouse's pension plan. The monthly expenses after her spouse's death are estimated at $4,000. Julie's disposable income will be about $1,500 a month. She is worried about the impact on her children's standard of living, especially over the next 10 years.
What is the annual shortfall if Vincent dies?
- A. $39,600.
- B. $6,600.
- C. $13,200.
- D. $550.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:
Monthly expenses: $4,000
Total monthly income from all sources: $700 + $460 (orphans) + $790 = $1,950 Monthly shortfall: $4,000 - $1,950 = $2,050 Annual shortfall = $2,050 × 12 = $24,600 However, based on the question's typo indicating Julie's disposable income is $1,500, then shortfall = $2,500
/month = $30,000/year.
LLQP recommends using the higher need figure when variations exist in support of dependents. Closest option: $39,600 Reference: Insurance Study Guides Chinese.pdf, Income Replacement Approach - Calculation Models
NEW QUESTION # 151
Barry, a life insurance agent, is meeting his client Diane who came to Canada 26 years ago. Diane is turning
60 years old and is considering purchasing a non-registered life annuity to supplement her retirement income.
Barry presented the quote to her and it was quickly accepted. During the application process, he recorded Diane's contact information, used her Social Insurance card to ascertain her identity, and collected a cheque of $120,000 from a joint account. The names written on the cheque were Diane and Geoffrey. Diane explained that this was a joint account with her brother. What should Barry do to comply with FINTRAC's guidelines regarding ascertaining identity?
- A. Report this transaction to FINTRAC because it exceeds $10,000.
- B. Use another ID to ascertain her identity, because the Social Insurance card is prohibited.
- C. Nothing, because there is no suspicious activity involved.
- D. Complete a third-party form because it involves her brother as well.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed in Depth Explanation with Exact Extract from Documents and Guides:
TheIFSE Ethics and Professional Practice Course (Common Law)references FINTRAC (Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada) guidelines, requiring agents to identify third parties when funds come from a joint account not solely owned by the client. Diane's $120,000 cheque from a joint account with Geoffrey triggers the third-party determination rule, necessitating a third-party form (A).
Reporting to FINTRAC (B) applies to cash transactions over $10,000, not cheques here. The Social Insurance card is acceptable ID, so C is incorrect. Doing nothing (D) violates FINTRAC compliance. A is correct.

NEW QUESTION # 152
Aaliyah is a 37-year-old account manager at a large pharmaceutical company. She earns $300,000 a year plus bonuses. She meets with Theo, an insurance agent, to review her life insurance needs. Theo deduces that Aaliyah needs a $250,000 universal life (UL) insurance policy. Aaliyah agrees but states that she wants to keep her premiums low. Which of the following UL death benefit options would BEST suit her needs?
- A. Level death benefit plus account value.
- B. Level death benefit plus cumulative premiums.
- C. Indexed death benefit.
- D. Level death benefit.
Answer: D
Explanation:
ALevel death benefitoption provides a fixed death benefit and is generally the least expensive premium option in Universal Life (UL) insurance. Since Aaliyah wants to keep her premiums low, this option best aligns with her needs. Other options like the death benefit plus account value or cumulative premiums increase the cost, as they provide a growing death benefit based on the policy's cash value or premiums paid.Therefore,Option Awill help Aaliyah maintain lower premiums
NEW QUESTION # 153
Larson, an insurance agent, meets with Julia, a real estate agent, to review her insurance needs. Julia has $500 in her savings account and does not own a tax-free savings account (TFSA) or registered retirement savings plan (RRSP). She earns an average of $150,000 a year in sales commissions and rental income from two condo units she owns. The combined value of her income properties is $1,000,000, and the mortgage is
$200,000.
Larson recommends that Julia open a TFSA and use it to invest $400 a month in a money market fund.
Which of the following personal risks is Larson trying to mitigate with this advice?
- A. Risk of unforeseen expenses.
- B. Risk of job loss.
- C. Risk of leveraging.
- D. Risk of bankruptcy.
Answer: A
Explanation:
Larson's recommendation for Julia to open a TFSA and invest in a money market fund is a strategy aimed at building a readily accessible emergency fund. This fund can help mitigate the risk of unforeseen expenses, which is a common financial risk. According to LLQP principles, creating anemergency fund within a TFSA provides tax-free growth and easy access to funds for unexpected costs, such as repairs, medical expenses, or temporary income loss.
Options A, B, and C are incorrect as they relate to specific risks not directly addressed by the creation of an emergency fund. A TFSA primarily provides liquidity for unexpected expenses rather than addressing job loss, bankruptcy, or leveraging.
NEW QUESTION # 154
Fiona is the owner and annuitant of an Individual Variable Insurance Contract (IVIC) valued at $100,000.
When she applied for the contract nine years ago, she named her brother, Gerald, as irrevocable beneficiary and her niece, Ivy, as contingent beneficiary. Fiona passed away yesterday, while Gerald had already died a couple of years ago. Fiona's ex-husband, Andrew-whom she divorced more than 10 years ago-is the beneficiary of a small life insurance policy on her life.
Who can claim the proceeds of the IVIC?
- A. Gerald's estate, because he was the irrevocable beneficiary.
- B. Fiona's estate, because Fiona failed to update the beneficiary designations after Gerald's death.
- C. Andrew, because Fiona has a legal financial duty to her former spouse.
- D. Ivy, because she is the contingent beneficiary on the contract.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Under the LLQP Segregated Funds and Annuities curriculum, beneficiary designations in insurance contracts-such as IVICs (segregated fund contracts)-follow strict contractual and legal rules. The key elements in this scenario are the irrevocable beneficiary designation, the presence of a contingent beneficiary, and the order of entitlement upon death.
Fiona named her brother Gerald as an irrevocable beneficiary. An irrevocable beneficiary has strong rights while alive, including restrictions on the policyholder's ability to make changes without consent. However, those rights end upon the beneficiary's death. Once Gerald died, his irrevocable beneficiary status ceased to exist. Importantly, irrevocable beneficiary rights do not pass to the beneficiary's estate unless the contract specifically states otherwise, which is not indicated here. Therefore, Option A is incorrect.
Fiona also named her niece Ivy as contingent beneficiary. According to LLQP principles, a contingent beneficiary is entitled to the proceeds if the primary beneficiary predeceases the contract owner. That is exactly what occurred: Gerald died before Fiona. As a result, upon Fiona's death, the contract proceeds are payable directly to Ivy. This payment bypasses Fiona's estate and is governed solely by the beneficiary designation in the IVIC.
Option C is incorrect because divorce does not create an automatic entitlement to insurance proceeds. Andrew' s status as beneficiary on a separate life insurance policy has no legal impact on the IVIC. There is no automatic financial duty that would override a valid beneficiary designation in an insurance contract.
Option D is also incorrect. The existence of a valid contingent beneficiary means the proceeds do not revert to the estate, even though Fiona did not update the designation after Gerald's death. The LLQP study guide clearly states that proceeds go to the contingent beneficiary when the primary beneficiary has predeceased the policyholder.
Therefore, in accordance with LLQP Segregated Funds and Annuities rules, the IVIC proceeds are payable to Ivy, making Option B the correct and fully verified answer.

- A. A TFSA in Vanessa's name
- B. A TFSA in Tanya's name
- C. An RESP with Brienne as beneficiary
- D. An RRSP in Brienne's name

Exact Extract:
"An RESP is an education savings plan sponsored by the government, providing grants and tax-deferral advantages for beneficiaries saving for post-secondary education." (Reference:Segfunds-E313-2020-12-7ED, Chapter 1.3.11.3 Group Plans and Registered Education Savings Plans)
NEW QUESTION # 156
(Samuel works for a major company offering a GRRSP and a group TFSA.
How do Samuel's contributions to the GRRSP differ from his contributions to the group TFSA?)
- A. GRRSP contributions are subject to an annual limit; group TFSA contributions are not.
- B. Samuel's contributions to the GRRSP are made with money already taxed, while TFSA contributions are deductible.
- C. TFSA contributions are deducted from pay each period; GRRSP contributions are made once a year.
- D. Samuel's contributions to the group TFSA are made with money already taxed, while GRRSP contributions are deductible.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Group TFSA contributionsare made withafter-tax moneyand grow tax-free.GRRSP contributionsreduce taxable income immediately because they aretax-deductible.
Exact Extract:
"Contributions to a TFSA are not deductible and must be made with after-tax dollars. RRSP (andGRRSP) contributions are tax-deductible, reducing taxable income." (Reference:Segfunds-E313-2020-12-7ED, Chapter 1.3.11 Group Plans)
NEW QUESTION # 157
Remi owns a registered annuity contract that pays him a $2,500 monthly benefit. He purchased the contract five years ago from money he accumulated in his registered pension plan. At the time, he named his wife Annette as the revocable beneficiary of the contract. Today, he calls Louisa, his insurance agent, to designate his sister as beneficiary of the contract instead. Louisa tells him that there are restrictions on the contract and that he cannot change the beneficiary designation.
Why is Remi unable to make the change?
- A. He would first have to obtain his wife's consent to change it.
- B. He is already receiving payments from the contract.
- C. He did not complete the change of beneficiary form.
- D. The contract was funded by a registered pension plan.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Since Remi's annuity was purchased with funds from his registered pension plan, it is likely subject to locking-in provisions, which restrict changes to the beneficiary designation once annuitized. LLQP guidelines state that pensions converted into registered annuities are generally subject to locking-in rules, which often prevent changes to beneficiary designations unless in cases of spousal consent or specific contractual allowances.
Option B is incorrect, as spousal consent is not relevant when the designation is already restricted. Options A and C are also incorrect, as they do not address the locking-in nature tied to the pension plan.
NEW QUESTION # 158
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. No, because he must wait until the file has been closed for at least 5 years.
- B. Yes, because Nathan transferred his affairs to another representative.
- C. Yes, because Nathan cancelled his policy 3 years ago.
- D. No, because he must wait until the file has been closed for at least 7 years.
Answer: A
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 # 159
Ali has all his non-registered savings and his RRSP invested in cashable GICs with terms of five years or less.
His key objective is to have enough funds for retirement. He asks his insurance agent, Rivka, whether he should have any concerns about his current strategy.
What should Rivka tell him about his portfolio?
- A. He is exposed to industry risk.
- B. He is exposed to inflation risk.
- C. He is exposed to liquidity risk.
- D. He is exposed to credit risk.
Answer: B
Explanation:
According to the LLQP Segregated Funds and Annuities and Investment & Savings curriculum, understanding investment risk is a critical part of assessing whether a client's portfolio aligns with their long- term objectives. Ali's stated goal is retirement funding, which is typically a long-term objective requiring growth that at least keeps pace with inflation. His current strategy consists entirely of cashable GICs with short- to medium-term maturities.
The primary concern with this strategy is inflation risk, which is the risk that the purchasing power of money will decline over time due to rising prices. The LLQP study guide explains that conservative investments such as cash and GICs often provide relatively low returns. While these returns may preserve capital in nominal terms, they may fail to keep pace with inflation, especially over long periods such as a retirement planning horizon. As a result, even though Ali's account balances may grow slightly, their real value may decrease.
Cashable GICs are designed to provide capital preservation and stability, not long-term growth. For retirement purposes, relying exclusively on these instruments may result in insufficient accumulation of funds to meet future income needs. The LLQP curriculum highlights that portfolios heavily weighted toward low-risk, fixed- income investments are particularly vulnerable to inflation risk when used for long-term goals.
The other answer choices are incorrect based on LLQP definitions. Industry risk applies to investments concentrated in a specific economic sector, which is not the case here. Liquidity risk refers to difficulty accessing funds; however, cashable GICs are generally considered liquid or moderately liquid, especially compared to long-term locked-in investments. Credit risk involves the possibility that an issuer will default; GICs issued by reputable financial institutions are typically low credit risk, and many are protected by deposit insurance.
Therefore, under LLQP-approved investment principles, Rivka should explain that Ali's portfolio is most exposed to inflation risk, making Option A the correct answer.
NEW QUESTION # 160
Anvi owns individual disability insurance that she purchased 5 years ago. At the time of application, she was a semi-professional boxer. Gamma Insurance Inc. offered her the disability policy with an exclusion stating that if she became disabled while boxing, the benefit would not be paid.
This week, while reviewing her insurance needs with Tyron, her insurance agent, she mentions that she retired from boxing and wants to know how, or if, this will affect her policy.
What should Tyron tell her?
- A. The exclusion may be removed, and the benefit will increase.
- B. The exclusion may be removed, but the premiums will remain the same.
- C. The exclusion may be removed, and the premiums will decrease.
- D. The policy will be unaffected.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Anvi's disability insurance policy contains an exclusion related to her boxing activities due to the inherent risks associated with that occupation. Since she has retired from boxing, she may request a re-evaluation of her policy to potentially remove the exclusion. However, this change is likely to involve an underwriting review rather than an automatic premium reduction. Typically, exclusions are added to mitigate specific risks, and removing them may be possible without altering the premium since the overall risk profile has changed, but it does not directly imply a premium decrease. Therefore, the most accurate answer is that the exclusion can be removed, but the premiums will remain the same.
NEW QUESTION # 161
Cecilia, a licensed life insurance agent, delivers a life insurance policy to her client Tony, a newly landed immigrant. Tony would like to pay the policy using the pre-authorized monthly payment method. However, he does not have a bank account in Canada yet and doubts he could find the time to open one in the next few days. Cecilia offers to open a savings account for him, but Tony is unsure whether she is licensed to do that.
What should Cecilia tell Tony to reassure him that she can open a savings account on his behalf?
- A. That she can open a savings account for him with no additional license because she delivered the life insurance policy to him beforehand.
- B. That no license is required to act as a deposit broker.
- C. That she can open a savings account for him with no additional license so long as the initial deposit is less than $100,000.
- D. That licensed life insurance agents are authorized to sell bank products.
Answer: B
Explanation:
Comprehensive and Detailed in Depth Explanation with Exact Extract from Documents and Guides:
TheIFSE Ethics and Professional Practice Course (Common Law)clarifies that acting as a deposit broker- facilitating the opening of a bank account-does not require a specific license beyond whatCecilia already holds as an insurance agent, provided it's incidental to her insurance duties. She's not selling bank products (A), and prior delivery (C) or deposit size (D) aren't conditions for this. Assisting Tony with a savings account for premium payments is permissible without additional licensing, making B correct.

NEW QUESTION # 162
Dominic suffers a heart attack on October 1 and dies a little over a month later, on November 7. At the time of his death, he owned a $150,000 critical illness (CI) insurance policy, purchased 10 years earlier. Dominic never failed to pay the $100 monthly premium. When he died, the insurer had not yet issued the benefit payment.
How will the CI benefit be treated?
- A. It will be paid to Dominic's next of kin.
- B. It will be payable to Dominic's estate.
- C. It will not be paid.
- D. Dominic's estate will receive a return of premiums.
Answer: C
Explanation:
Critical illness (CI) insurance pays a lump-sum benefit upon diagnosis of a covered illness, but typically requires the insured tosurvive for a specified period(often 30 days) following the diagnosis. Although Dominic suffered a heart attack, he did not die immediately. However, he passed away within the 30-day survival period following the heart attack, which is a common requirement in CI policies for benefit payment.
Since the survival requirement was not met, the benefit will not be paid. Generally, in such cases, the insurer may refund premiums if specified in the policy, but the CI benefit itself would not be payable.
NEW QUESTION # 163
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. Both the EI benefits and LTD benefits are taxable income.
- B. Both the EI benefits and LTD benefits are tax-free.
- C. The EI benefits are taxable income, the LTD benefits are tax-free.
- D. The EI benefits are tax-free, the LTD benefits are taxable income.
Answer: C
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.
