• moving the mortgage to another institution doesn't impact the coverage - meaning no need to requalify medically or financially
• you may receive all or a portion of the premiums paid on death or cancellation
• returned premiums in the event of death or cancalation may be used to reduce your outstanding mortgage debt.
• the benefit will not reduce with the balance of your mortgage
• you choose the benefit amount that fits their needs
