  7. New 350 Life and CI Applications

    On August 2nd, 2023, Equitable Life® will be updating the privacy and legal sections on some forms. This includes the form 350 Paper Application for Life and/or Critical Illness Insurance. This change will also be applied on our websites and our online application EZComplete®. These changes are part of Bill 64. The Bill is about the protection of personal and private information in Quebec. This will take effect on September 1st, 2023.

    Due to this change, we ask all advisors to use the latest version dated May 2023 of the paper application after August 2nd. Applications in Quebec must use the lastest version from September 1, 2023 onwards. 

    For all regions outside Quebec, we will support a transition period from ‘old’ to ‘new’ applications until December 31st, 2023. After this date, we will no longer accept older versions of our Life and Critical Illness application.








    To make sure you are using the latest version of the application, check the date on the title page. It should say May 2023. See the image below:

    Form-350-Image-EN-(1).jpg

    Email completed applications to supply@equitable.ca.

  8. Making it easier to claim for Loss of Independent Existence for EquiLiving Critical Illness insuranc We have recently changed the definition of Loss of Independent Existence (LOIE). As a result, the Critical Illness claim criteria has also changed. Before, EquiLiving® Critical Illness insurance coverage was issued with a definition of LOIE that required clients to have the total inability to do 3 of 6 Activities of Daily Living (ADLs). Now, clients will only need to give us proof of the total inability to do 2 of 6 Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) to submit a claim for LOIE. 

    This change makes it easier for clients to claim for this covered critical illness. This change is retroactive to February 2022.

    Clients will be sent a notice from us with a personalized endorsement from Equitable Life. This applies to their policy and forms part of their contract. We will approve claims for LOIE as outlined in the endorsement.

    LOIE is one of the 26 conditions named as a covered critical illness in an EquiLiving policy or Critical Illness insurance rider on an Equitable Life insurance policy. With a loss of independent existence, some activities of daily living can no longer be done on one’s own. This can happen because of a disease or an injury.

    For more information, reach out to your local wholesaler.
