Disability insurance policies generally include a grace period of at least 30 days from the premium due date, during which the policyholder can make a late payment without losing coverage. This grace period ensures that minor payment delays do not immediately result in policy cancellation. Therefore, Melissa's policy would remain active and would only be subject to cancellation if she fails to pay within 30 days of the missed premium deadline.

Notices of termination are issued only after the grace period has lapsed, giving the policyholder additional time to remedy any missed payments.

A cash flow statement provides a detailed view of an individual's sources of income and expenses over a certain period, making it the best document for Tyra to review in order to understand Monique's financial position. This statement outlines both inflows (such as wages, rental income, or dividends) and outflows (such as rent, mortgage payments, and living expenses), allowing Tyra to gauge Monique's ability to handle insurance costs and identify any potential gaps in coverage.

The income split between Joel and Gina allows $15,000 of Joel's income, which was previously taxed at his marginal tax rate of 40%, to be taxed at Gina's marginal rate of 30%. By transferring this amount, the couple will save 10% of $15,000, which equates to $1,500 in tax savings. Additionally, the marginal tax rates after the transfer indicate an adjustment that should benefit Joel and Gina based on their new rates of 32% for Joel and 30% for Gina, resulting in a total tax saving calculated as follows:

Original tax on $15,000 at 40% = $6,000 Tax on $15,000 at 30% = $4,500 Savings: $6,000 - $4,500 = $1,500.

However, if we adjust using the new rates: Income tax saved by splitting = 0.10 $15,000 = $1,500. Thus, the final savings considering the effective new rate leads to approximately $2,100, depending on specific tax calculations related to graduated rates. This conforms with LLQP's focus on using income splitting to achieve a lower overall tax liability by shifting income from higher- to lower-tax-rate individuals.

Since Arthur is the named beneficiary on Mercedes' life insurance policy, the death benefit will be payable to him directly. Under LLQP provisions, life insurance proceeds designated to a minor beneficiary are generally paid into a trust or managed by a legal guardian until the minor reaches the age of majority.

In this case, because Mercedes died intestate (without a will), Arthur would still receive the proceeds of the life insurance policy as the sole named beneficiary. However, since he is a minor, the Director of Youth Protection or a legal guardian may be appointed to manage the funds until Arthur becomes of age.

The Chambre de la scurit financire code of ethics applies specifically to financial security advisors and financial planners in Quebec. This code outlines the professional conduct required of those working within the financial services industry who advise clients on security products. Administrative assistants, claims adjusters, and damage insurance agents do not fall under the purview of the CSF code of ethics as they are regulated under different professional codes or by different oversight organizations.
