Term Life Insurance
Two things that we know are not avoidable are death and taxes, but most people prefer not to think about them. However, if you have dependents it’s important that you prepare, in the event that financial support is required. Life insurance benefits will help your family manage their day-to-day living expenditures by providing enough to cover funeral costs, final expenses, education plans, paying off mortgages, other debts, or whatever you want coverage for to make sure your loved ones are taken care of.
Term life insurance is a type of life insurance that makes a payment of a death benefit if the insured person passes within a certain period of time. When the period of a term life insurance policy ends, the policyholder can choose to extend it for a new term, transform the policy to continuous or permanent coverage, or let it end.
In most cases ending it and not having any coverage leaves your loved ones vulnerable. We recommend you talk to a licensed Experior agent before making that decision. You may need less coverage or a different type.

How Term Insurance Works in Canada
Insurance companies determine coverage rates based on your age, gender, and health condition when you buy term life policies. In some cases, a medical exam is necessary. In addition, your driving history, current medications, smoking status, career, hobbies, and family history may all be questioned by the insurance provider and more, this helps them determine their risk.
Your beneficiaries will be paid the face amount of your coverage if you die within the term of the policy. The beneficiary can use the benefit of the term policies to pay for medical and funeral costs, personal debts or mortgage or other needs/wants at that time. Term policies may be extended after the end of the agreed term, but your premiums will be adjusted according to your current age upon renewal. Aside from the death benefit, term life has little value. There are no savings features like there are with a permanent life insurance policy.
Term Insurance is the least expensive type of life insurance as it has the least amount of bells and whistles. Term is great for younger families or people on a fixed income and people who need insurance for a specific amount of time, for example, to cover a 25-year mortgage.
