Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between Term-10, Term-20, Term-25, and Term-30?
- Term-10 = 10 years of coverage
- Term-20 = 20 years of coverage (you get the idea!) Want longer protection? Term-25 or Term-30 might be the right fit. Each term locks in your premiums for that length of time, making budgeting easy.
How much term life insurance do I really need?
Quick rule of thumb? Around 10x your annual salary.
Why so much? Because the money helps your family cover debts, living expenses, and the kids’ education. It gives them breathing room while they regroup from a tragic loss.
Which insurance company is the best in Canada?
All the companies we work with are A-rated, meaning they are reputable, solid, and regulated. If you want term life insurance in Canada, choosing the right company is where the real effort begins. What works for one person may not work for another. That’s why having an independent life insurance agent in your corner is essential. We will ensure that you get the best coverage at the most competitive rate.

What happens if I outlive my term life insurance policy?
Congrats—you outlived your coverage! 🎉
When your Term-10, Term-20, or longer policy ends, you’ll have these options:
- Renew (at a higher rate)
- Convert to permanent insurance (no medical needed)
-
Or just let it expire if you don’t need coverage anymore.
We’ll walk you through the process when the time comes.
What’s the difference between term life and whole life insurance?
Term life = Provides coverage for a set period, with lower premiums and simple protection.
Whole life = Offers lifelong coverage, higher premiums, and builds cash value over time.
Term life insurance in Canada works for most people most of the time. It provides pure protection at a great price for the times you need it the most!
Can I cancel my policy if I change my mind?
You sure can! All policies come with a 10-day free look period. If you decide it’s not for you, cancel with zero penalty.
Even after that, you can cancel anytime with no penalty – you are always in the driver’s seat.
Is my term life insurance policy tax-free?
Yes! In Canada, life insurance payouts are tax-free to your beneficiaries.
They’ll receive the full amount—no deductions, no surprises.
Can I get coverage if I have a health condition?
In many cases, yes!
We work with multiple insurers, so we can match you with one that is most flexible regarding your health history.
We’ve helped people with diabetes, high blood pressure, and cancer survivors.
And to be honest, people are usually healthier than they think.
How long does it take to get approved?
- Instant or same-day for no-medical policies
-
1–4 weeks if underwriting is required
Either way, we stay in touch every step of the way. No radio silence at TermCanada.
Do I need to name a beneficiary?
Yes—and it’s one of the most essential steps.
Your beneficiary is the person (or people) who receives the payout if something happens to you.
You can even name a charity or set up a trust—we can help with the details.
