Frequently asked questions

Popular FAQs

What are the costs to get started?

Your Subtitle Goes Here
L
Depending on your Province, the costs to becoming a life insurance agent / life insurance sales person can vary. Typically starting your new career should cost you approximately $1,000 to $1,500.

How fast can I get licensed?

Your Subtitle Goes Here
L
The Harmonized Life License Qualification Program (HLLQP) can be completed in as little as one week (2-3 weeks is more common). The licensing exams can all be done in 1 (one) day. Therefore, the HLLQP and the licensing exams can be completed in as little as 3-4 weeks from initial registration.

How much can I earn?

Your Subtitle Goes Here
L
Life insurance agents are paid a commission by the life insurance provider. This commission/fee is based on a percentage of the policy premium so your earning potential is only limited by the number of deals you do. Becoming a life insurance agent is a fairly inexpensive industry to get into, while offering the potential benefit of earning you a six figure income much more quickly when compared to other careers with the same income potential.

Why life  insurance?

Life insurance is a staple product in Canada, with 29 million people currently covered by some form of insurance. Canada also has a consistently growing population, with the demand for insurance steadily increasing. But the insurance industry is suffering a talent shortage and new agents are needed as the majority of existing agents get closer to retirement age.
