October Newsletter

A message from Tim Kane

When I was at Mount Royal College in the insurance program, one of the first things I learned was the definition of insurance, which in a nutshell, was to pay into a pool in exchange for financial protection in the case of fortuitous losses.



It's been quite the year so far

Advisor FAQ

Question: 

Can plan limits increase mid-year? 

To maintain the necessary element of risk set out by the CRA, our general recommendation is to make increases only at renewal.  Generally we recommend any plan limit changes be done at renewal to keep it onside with CRA.  There are circumstances where it can be mid-year but there are a few things to keep in mind:

1) Balance cannot be increased for just one employee, it must be increased for all employees in the class.

2) If you are increasing the balance because an employee has incurred expenses greater than the plan limit set it would be seen as offside with the CRA to increase the limit mid-year.

3) In any situation we always recommend you get the sign off of the corporate accountant.
