IFSE Institute LLQP Exam Questions

As Paulette is injured during work and is covered by her employer's group disability plan, her disability benefits would be paid out under this group insurance policy. Group disability insurance provides both short- and long-term coverage, as outlined in her employer's benefits plan. This plan typically covers income replacement for non-workplace injuries or illnesses. However, since this was an on-the-job accident, it may be covered by the CNESST, but group insurance often still serves as the primary provider in situations where a workplace injury results in short-term disability exceeding standard workplace injury benefits. The SAAQ would only cover injuries directly related to road accidents within its jurisdiction. Employment insurance (EI) provides general income replacement but is secondary to employer-provided group disability benefits.

A life annuity typically provides the highest monthly benefit compared to other annuity types because it does not include additional guarantees or features that reduce the payout, such as a guarantee period or indexing. Since Arianna is healthy and seeking the highest monthly income, a standard life annuity, which pays a fixed income for life without any additional features, will maximize her monthly benefit. LLQP resources confirm that adding options like guarantees or indexing typically lowers the monthly payout due to the insurer's increased liability.

Option B would provide a lower benefit than a standard life annuity because of the 10-year guarantee. Option C (Indexed annuity) would have lower initial payments due to the cost of inflation protection, and Option D (Joint life annuity) would provide less income as it is designed to continue payments to a surviving spouse.

The Chambre de la scurit financire code of ethics applies specifically to financial security advisors and financial planners in Quebec. This code outlines the professional conduct required of those working within the financial services industry who advise clients on security products. Administrative assistants, claims adjusters, and damage insurance agents do not fall under the purview of the CSF code of ethics as they are regulated under different professional codes or by different oversight organizations.

Beneficiary changes in insurance contracts generally become effective once the insurer receives and processes the signed change form. This is supported by LLQP material, which specifies that changes to beneficiary designations must be documented and received by the insurer for the new designation to take effect. Since Linda is a revocable beneficiary, Luisa can make this change without requiring Linda's consent.

Option B is incorrect as revocable beneficiaries do not require consent for changes. Option C is too general, and D is incorrect because a formal written change form is typically required.

Lily's RRSP contribution room is reduced by her DCPP contributions. Her total income for Year 2 was $125,000, and she contributed 5% ($6,250) to the DCPP, matched by the employer, for a total of $12,500. The Pension Adjustment (PA) for her DCPP contribution would be $12,500, which reduces her RRSP contribution room.

Calculation:

RRSP limit based on previous year's income (18% of $120,000): $21,600

PA reduction: $12,500

Remaining RRSP contribution room for Year 2: $21,600 - $12,500 = $9,100

Including her unused contribution room: $9,100 + $15,000 = $24,100

So, Lily can contribute $24,600 to her RRSP in Year 2.
