When to buy life insurance

What makes the first four months of a year the most popular? With the start of a new year, many Canadians begin to consider all of the events they’re planning for the coming 12 months; life events like getting married, buying a home and having children.

These are not the only times when a person should consider life insurance. Life insurance should be considered when:

Getting married
Having children
Changing employment (particularly if moving to a contract position or self-employment where benefits may not be available)
Buying a new home
Refinancing an existing home
Fulfilling financial obligations like child or spousal support
Retiring

As changes in your life happen, your life insurance needs will change too. Regularly review the life insurance you have and keep it up-to-date to reflect the changes in your life.
