  • Life insurance pays off or reduces your mortgage balance (up to $750,000) if you pass away.
  • Life insurance also covers prepayment charges, any overdrawn property tax account balance and any “cash back option” penalty amounts you owe, if you pass away.
  • Critical illness insurance pays a lump sum to your mortgage balance (up to $300,000) if you are diagnosed with a life-altering critical illness.
  • Disability insurance maintains your mortgage payment (up to $3,000 per month, for up to 24 months) if you experience a disability and your doctor says you can’t work.

Note: Life Insurance is part of all coverage plans. You cannot be insured for both critical illness and disability insurance at the same time on the same mortgage.
