  1. New rules in effect for all Quebec applications The Quebec Regulatory Tribunal (AMF) made an important decision about selling insurance products to Quebec residents. As a result, Equitable® has changed its licensing rules for all future sales to clients in Quebec. 

    Effective on November 28, 2024, you must be licensed in Quebec to submit an application for a client who lives in Quebec. This requirement applies to all insurance and investment products.

    Regardless of where the application is signed, if you meet with a client whose primary residence is in Quebec, you must be licensed in Quebec to submit on the client’s behalf. 

    If you are not licensed in Quebec, you will need to get licensed in Quebec for applications for Quebec clients to be processed. 

    What about licensing for clients outside of Quebec? 

    In all cases, we encourage you to be licensed in the province where a client lives to be able to do business or provide ongoing service.




    Equitable is committed to providing solutions and service that is in the best interests of clients and advisors alike. We appreciate your continued support.

  5. New! Evidence of Insurability Schedule We are pleased to announce Equitable’s new Evidence of Insurability Schedule. The new schedule applies to all life and critical illness insurance applications signed on or after October 5, 2024.   

    Here are the benefits to you:

    ●  New chart is easier to read with more clarity and transparency.
    ●  ECG and TST are no longer routinely required for Life applicants.
    ●  Blood and urine requirement is streamlined for Life applicants.
    ●  Detailed underwriting requirements for higher coverage amounts and mature applicants.

    Please refer to the new Evidence of Insurability schedule (Form #1343) for full details.

    Equitable® has the right to ask for more evidence of insurability. We will do this if we feel it is needed to assess the risk. 





    Key changes – Age and amount requirements 

    Life applicants:

    ●  Resting ECG: No longer a routine age and amount requirement. This may still be requested at our underwriter’s discretion.
    ●  Treadmill ECG: No longer required at any age or amount.
    ●  Standalone Urine: Standalone urine changed to blood and urine at $100,001 and $500,000 coverage amounts for clients over age 55.
    ●  Mature Age Focus Interview (MAFI): New for clients aged 75+. As part of the paramedical, we will assess the applicant’s Activities of Daily Living, social activities, and word recall ability.

    Life and Critical Illness applicants:

    ●  For clients aged 70+, evidence is now valid (recent) if completed within the past 6 months. For all other applicants (ages 18-69), there is no change – evidence is valid if completed within the past 12 months.

    Financial/Third-party verification

    Reminder – this is required for life insurance amounts over $5M. Our underwriting team will be pleased to assist you with this step.
