LLQP Exam Dumps : Life License Qualification Program (LLQP)

Lily’s RRSP contribution room is reduced by her DCPP contributions. Her total income for Year 2 was $125,000, and she contributed 5% ($6,250) to the DCPP, matched by the employer, for a total of $12,500. The Pension Adjustment (PA) for her DCPP contribution would be $12,500, which reduces her RRSP contribution room.

Calculation:

RRSP limit based on previous year’s income (18% of $120,000): $21,600

PA reduction: $12,500

Remaining RRSP contribution room for Year 2: $21,600 - $12,500 = $9,100

Including her unused contribution room: $9,100 + $15,000 = $24,100

So, Lily can contribute $24,600 to her RRSP in Year 2​.

When an irrevocable beneficiary is designated, the policyholder must obtain the beneficiary's consent for any changes that affect the beneficiary’s rights, such as revoking their status or making policy alterations. By naming Ofra as an irrevocable beneficiary, Kaamil would be restricted from unilaterally changing this designation or withdrawing policy funds without her agreement​​. This requirement protects the irrevocable beneficiary’s interests, ensuring they retain certain rights in the policy.

In the LLQP Segregated Funds and Annuities material, a LIRA (Locked-in Retirement Account) is clearly described as a locked-in, savings-phase vehicle used to hold pension money transferred from an employer-sponsored pension plan when an employee leaves before retirement. A key rule is that withdrawals cannot be made from the locked-in savings account. The curriculum explains that locked-in plans have two phases: a savings phase (LRSP/LIRA) and an income phase (such as LIF/LRIF/PRRIF/RLIF), and only the income-phase accounts permit withdrawals. The text explicitly states that when pension value is transferred into an LRSP/LIRA, the individual gains control over investment choices “except that withdrawals are not allowed.”

That is exactly Stéphane’s situation: his segregated fund investment is held inside a LIRA, meaning the insurer must administer it as locked-in pension money. Even though the segregated fund contract itself has a 10-year term-to-maturity, the maturity date is not the governing restriction here. The governing restriction is the locked-in legislation attached to the LIRA: Stéphane cannot simply “cash in” or redeem the contract to access a lump sum for personal needs such as a divorce settlement.

The LLQP curriculum also notes that unlocking is only permitted in a few specific circumstances (for example, certain cases of financial hardship, shortened life expectancy, or very small balances). Divorce equalization may allow a transfer under family law rules in some jurisdictions, but it does not mean Stéphane can redeem the LIRA for cash on demand; the funds generally remain within locked-in vehicles. Therefore, NRJ Insurance would refuse the redemption request because the assets are locked in.

Accordingly, the correct answer is D: NRJ Insurance cannot carry out the request because the funds are held in a locked-in account and cannot be cashed in right now.
