  1. Enhancing the Transfer Process: Equitable's New Signature Guarantee Service Equitable® is making transfers even easier with EZcomplete®.

    This enhancement will help advisors and clients by reducing the number of rejections from other institutions that need a signature guarantee. Reducing transfer rejections means less time and effort for advisors, and faster transfers from other institutions. 

    Signature Guarantees
    Equitable will now offer signature guarantees on most transfers requested through EZcomplete. 

    When is a signature guarantee not available?

    •  For entity owned accounts
    •  If a Power of Attorney is signing on behalf of an owner
    •  If the transferring account has an irrevocable beneficiary 

    Watch the quick Identity Check with Persona video or read through instructions below. 





    To offer a signature guarantee, Equitable first needs to check the identity of all owners using Persona, a third-party service provider.
    The advisor starts by selecting a signature guarantee in EZcomplete. An email link is sent to all proposed owners.


    Clients can click the link within the email to Persona's verification process.
    They will be prompted to take a picture of their photo ID and a selfie, turning their head slightly left and right by following the prompts.
    Their identity can then be confirmed in seconds.






    Sending Transfer Forms:
    •  If all owners' identities are verified, Equitable will send the transfer form with a signature guarantee stamp and the e-signature audit log to the transferring institution.
    •  If ID verification fails, clients will be prompted to try up to three times. If still unsuccessful, the transfer form and e-signature audit log is sent to the transferring institution without the signature guarantee stamp.

    Handling Issues:
    •  Advisors’ obligations to verify ID is not affected by this process; ID verification is still required.
    •  If the client times out or loses the email to access Persona, the advisor can resend the link.
    •  If the client’s name or email changes after ID verification, the advisor will need to redo the ID verification with the updated information to get a signature guarantee.

    This update strives to make processes smoother and more efficient for everyone. Just another reason to do business with Equitable. When we work together, success is mutual.

  3. FHSA tips for new homeowners Clients have a 30-day window after moving into their new home to withdraw funds from their First Home Savings Account (FHSA) tax-free for expenses. Beyond this period, they have until December 31 of the following year to either transfer any remaining funds to a Registered Retirement Savings Plan or Registered Retirement Income Fund without incurring tax penalties, or withdraw the remaining funds as taxable income, which will be subject to withholding tax.

  4. Sometimes plans change when you least expect After saving for several years, clients might choose not to buy a home, and that's okay. One of the advantages of a First Home Savings Account (FHSA) is the flexibility to transfer funds to any registered account that accepts contributions. Transfers to Registered Retirement Savings Plans, Registered Retirement Income Funds, or other FHSAs are tax-free and do not impact contribution limits. However, be aware transfers to other accounts are considered withdrawals and are considered taxable income and subject to withholding tax.

  7. Can’t meet in person? EZcomplete is an EZ way to meet online


    Instead of canceling your meeting, why not meet online instead? Our EZcomplete® application makes it easy to process your non-face-to-face applications and do business with Equitable Life.
     
    EZcomplete is available on Pivotal Select™ segregated funds and all life products – Term, Whole Life, CI and Universal Life – and allows for the signing process to change from in-person to non face-to-face at the end of the application, despite how it was started.  This gives you and your clients the option to easily and efficiently connect remotely.



    How does it work?
     
    EZcomplete gives you the option to conduct your non face-to-face business easily and quickly, enabling your clients to provide their signature remotely on their own device. You simply need to enter their email address and provide them with a secret passcode to securely access the documents to review and sign.
     
    There is no limit on the face amounts or product options and the time to settle is reduced when using the application. It is a flexible, intuitive tool to use, and helps keep business on track now that many clients and advisors are opting for more social distance.


    For Life Advisors, please refer to the New Business and Underwriting page on Equinet for details about non-face-to-face delivery.
