What happens when I pass away?

One simple mention to your local funeral home about your plan will be enough. From here, we take care of all the details and paperwork in conjunction with your local funeral director. We always encourage families to let their funeral home know that they have a Rest Assured Plan in place.

Is my money protected for as long as I live?

Yes. All of our plans are backed by a company called Assuris, and are protected for your security.

Can I shelter extra money in my Rest Assured Plan?

Yes. Many people put extra money aside in their plan to help out with extra costs that may occur such as: flowers, luncheons, cemetery expenses, donations, traveling expenses, and other things. Some people choose to put extra money aside just so that their family has immediate financial help. However, because of the attractiveness, there are limits on how much money a person can shelter in a single plan.

What happens if I go into a nursing home?

The money in your plan is sheltered and cannot be touched by anyone but yourself. This includes nursing homes, income tax, lawyers, and estate costs.

What happens if I move?

Our plans are transferable penalty-free, even from province to province.

Do I ever need a medical to qualify for a plan?

No. None of our products require that you have a medical exam, and we offer plans that anyone can qualify for regardless of age or health.

Are the financial benefits in my Rest Assured Plan taxable?

No. When a plan is sponsored by a funeral home, all the money grows with tax-free interest and is also payable to your family tax-free as well.
