Monthly Payment Option

  • The monthly payment plan is restricted to: an applicant who is either applying for or holds a valid Temporary Resident, Super Visa, Work or Student Visa, or other visitor visa issued by the government of Canada when the issuance of such visa is conditional on the purchase of mandatory medical insurance.
  • A minimum coverage period of 365 days and a minimum aggregate policy limit of $100,000 must be purchased.
  • Additional cancellation restrictions as well as other terms, limitations and conditions will apply.
  • Coverage does not start until the policy is activated. Upon successful activation of your policy, coverage starts on the effective date shown on your policy confirmation. If you activate your policy after your actual arrival date, a waiting period will apply.
  • Under the monthly payment option, an initial deposit equal to (2) two months of premium is payable at the time of application. A third month of premium is payable when the policy is activated. Thereafter, the effective date will establish the premium due date and monthly premiums must be paid in each subsequent month until the full policy premium has been paid or until you provide proof that you have returned to your country of origin (whichever is earlier).
  • If you have not activated your policy within two years of the effective date shown on your policy confirmation, the policy must be cancelled. Notification of such cancellation will be sent to your last known mailing and email addresses and/or phone number on file. Your agent who sold you the policy will also be notified. You are requested to confirm receipt of this notification. Upon your confirmation, your deposit premium less the $50 policy fee will be refunded. If there is no response from you within 30 days, your deposit premium and policy fee will be non-refundable.
