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.

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:

Key person insurance pays $5,000/month for 12 months max (total $60,000) after a 60-day wait. Replacement expense rider pays $2,500/month during replacement (6 months = $15,000). Total: $5,000 × 10 months (post-wait) = $50,000 + $15,000 = $65,000 (Chapter 5:Insurance to Protect Businesses).

Option A: Incorrect; overestimates.

Option B: Correct; $65,000.

Option C-D: Incorrect; underestimates.

Since Gregory and Vanessa bought a joint life annuity without mention of a guarantee period, the annuity would cease payments upon the death of the second annuitant. Therefore, no death claim can be made on the annuity.

Exact Extract:

"In a joint life annuity with no guarantee period, payments stop upon the death of the second annuitant. No death benefit is payable."
