Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation: Maryse’s request for proof of age and identity is tied to legal obligations beyond standard insurance practice. The Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (PCMLTFA, Section 9) mandates financial professionals, including insurance representatives, to verify client identity to prevent money laundering, requiring documents like a birth certificate or driver’s license. The Insurers Act (Section 93) and its Regulation complement this by requiring insurers (and their representatives) to confirm insurability and identity for underwriting accuracy, such as age affecting premiums. Option D correctly identifies these laws. Option A’s Charter (Sections 1–4) protects rights but doesn’t mandate ID collection. Option B’s Distribution Act (Section 16) and APPIPS (Section 10) govern advisor conduct and privacy but don’t specifically require ID for proposals. OptionC’s APPIPS pairing with PCMLTFA is incomplete without insurer-specific rules. The Ethics manual supports compliance with anti-money laundering and insurer requirements.

In the context of Quebec, decisions made by the discipline committee of professional bodies under the authority of the Autorité des marchés financiers (AMF) are subject to appeal processes established by Quebec law. The Court of Quebec is the designated body for appeals concerning decisions rendered by disciplinary committees. Specifically, when an insurance agent like Jaba disagrees with the disciplinary action taken by the AMF’s discipline committee, the proper channel for appeal is the Court of Quebec, not the AMF, Chambre de la sécurité financière (CSF), or any other entity.

The Chambre de la sécurité financière (CSF) itself does not serve as an appellate body for these disciplinary decisions but functions as a regulatory body to oversee the ethical and professional conduct of financial services professionals in Quebec. The AMF, while overseeing the financial markets, also does not handle appeals on behalf of its discipline committee.

This appeals process aligns with professional conduct standards and legal recourses as covered under Quebec’s framework for insurance professionals. Under LLQP guidelines and relevant regulations, appeals must proceed through established legal channels, such as the Court of Quebec, ensuring that disciplinary decisions are subject to judicial review when contested​​.

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation: In life insurance, a death benefit requires proof of death, typically a death certificate. Under Quebec law (Civil Code, Article 92), if a person disappears and death cannot be immediately confirmed (e.g., no body found), a court can issue a declaratory judgment of death after a waiting period—usually 7 years, or sooner with evidence of peril (e.g., forest fire). The LLQP notes that insurers delay payment until this legal determination, as premature payment risks fraud. Option D correctly states that the beneficiary could receive the face amount after this process. Option A (30-day payment) assumes immediate proof, which isn’t available here. Option B (premium refund) is incorrect, as the contract remains valid, not void. Option C (impossible payment) overstates the issue—payment is possible post-judgment. The Ethics manual mandates advisors to clarify claim processes, especially in uncertain scenarios.

Disability insurance policies generally stipulate that the insurer must pay benefits within a specific timeframe following receipt of the proof of loss, typically within 30 days. This aligns with LLQP guidelines and common insurance practices, which require that insurers act promptly upon receiving all necessary documentation related to a claim. Coraline must provide her proof of loss, after which the insurer is obligated to start the payment process. The waiting period dictates when benefits start, but the insurer must pay within the specified period after receiving the required proof​​.

If Rhonda wants the policy to be used for paying taxes on her estate, naming theestateas the beneficiary is the most appropriate option. The LLQP notes that naming the estate allows the proceeds to directly addressestate liabilities, such as taxes, before distribution to heirs.

This is a multi-need situation. The LLQP recommends layering coverage:

A 25-year term policy for mortgage protection.

A term-to-65 policy for income replacement.

Non-convertible Term 10 insurance does not offer conversion privileges to permanent coverage. It can be renewed until age 80, after which it terminates. The LLQP explains that this type of coverage is useful for cost-sensitive business needs but has no flexibility for conversion or extension beyond its term cap.

When Coraline assigns her whole life insurance policy to a charitable organization, she can claim the entire policy’s fair market value as a charitable donation for tax credit purposes, which is generally the death benefit if there is no significant accumulated cash value. Since Coraline continues to pay the premiums, the policy remains in force. Thus, she can claim the$250,000face value of the policy as her charitable donation, which is eligible for a tax credit. Monthly premium amounts (Options B and C) or a lack of CSV (Option A) do not limit her eligibility for the credit based on the policy’s value.Therefore,Option Dis correct​.
