LLQP Exam Dumps : Life License Qualification Program (LLQP)

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.

The agent’s misrepresentation violates ethical standards. TheIFSE Ethics and Professional Practice Course (Common Law)identifies the OmbudService for Life and Health Insurance (OLHI) as an independent body that assists consumers with complaints against insurance agents or companies when internal resolution fails. Assuris (A) protects policyholders if an insurer fails, not for agent misconduct. The Canadian Council of Insurance Regulators (C) coordinates policy, not complaints. The Office of the Privacy Commissioner (D) handles privacy issues, not misrepresentation. OLHI is the correct avenue for Suzanne, making B correct.

Comprehensive and Detailed In-Depth Explanation: Antoine’s duty as an insurance representative, per the Distribution Act (Sections 16–18) and Civil Code (Article 2408), includes assessing Alexandre’s risk profile and explaining policy terms, especially exclusions. Mountain climbing is a high-risk activity that many insurers exclude or restrict, but this is not a blanket legal exclusion under the Civil Code (contrary to option A). Option B is correct: Antoine must review the specific policy’s exclusion clauses and inform Alexandre that a claim could be denied if death occurs during mountain climbing, ensuring informed consent. Option C misinterprets the Quebec Charter (Sections 10–20), which prohibits discrimination but allows insurers to set risk-based exclusions (private contract freedom, Article 1378). Option D neglects Antoine’s obligation to disclose material exclusions, risking misrepresentation. The Ethics and Professional Practice manual mandates full disclosure of risks and exclusions to uphold client trust and compliance.
