Life Insurance for CIBC Personal Lines of Credit could be right for you if any of the following apply:
- You have personal liability for a CIBC Personal Line of Credit (PLC) and/or CIBC Education Line of Credit (ELC) as a borrower, co-borrower or guarantor
- You need protection for your family in case of unforeseen events
- You don't have Life Insurance on 3 other CIBC PLC/ELCs
In the event your Life claim is approved, Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada (Sun Life) will pay the Life Insurance benefit to CIBC to reduce or pay off your insured PLC/ELC.
The Life insurance benefit* is the least of the following:
- The end-of-day balance of the PLC/ELC owing to CIBC on the date of death
- The credit limit of the PLC/ELC on the date of death
- The Sun Life approved maximum insurance coverage amount on the date of death
- $300,000
In addition, Sun Life will pay up to 6 months of PLC/ELC interest on the claim benefit amount between the date of death and the date the claim benefit is paid.
There is a maximum Life Insurance benefit payable for all your Life Insured CIBC PLC/ELCs of up to $750,000.
Key benefits
| Peace of mind | In the event your Life Insurance claim is approved, your family may not need to worry about paying off/down the CIBC PLC/ELC should you or your insured co-borrower/guarantor pass away*. |
| Greater security & savings | Life Insurance for CIBC PLC/ELCs provides security to both you and your co-borrower/guarantor. If your co-borrower/guarantor does not qualify or does not wish to apply for life insurance, you may still apply. If you have Life and Disability insurance coverage (see top of page), the Disability Insurance premiums will be reduced by 10%. |
| Saves you time | You'll receive simple and fast automatic approval without completing a Statement of Health when the CIBC PLC/ELC credit limit is less than or equal to $100,000*. |
| Convenience | Your insurance premiums are automatically charged to your PLC/ELC account, and are detailed on your monthly statement. Insurance premiums are only charged when you have a debit balance on your CIBC PLC/ELC. |
When would coverage begin?
If you are eligible to apply for Life Insurance, coverage can begin as soon as you are approved for the CIBC PLC/ELC, or the date you sign a completed Application for Creditor Insurance for CIBC Personal Lines of Credit if later, provided that your CIBC PLC/ELC credit limit is equal to or less than $100,000.
If the CIBC PLC/ELC credit limit exceeds $100,000, a Statement of Health will be required in order for Sun Life to determine if the excess coverage (coverage above $100,000) can be granted. Even if you are declined for the excess amount, the coverage up to $100,000 will remain in force. Sun Life will advise you in writing of the total amount of Insurance coverage available to you.
