Contingent beneficiary designationThe contingent beneficiary is only valid while the Sun Life GIFs contract is in force, it doesn’t carry over to the annuity. Once the death benefit is paid out to the primary beneficiaries, all contingent beneficiary designations become null and void.

Please ensure the client indicates which primary beneficiary this contingent beneficiary is for.

This amount reflects how much of the primary beneficiary’s share the contingent beneficiary will receive.

Owner's authorizationWhen selecting the legacy settlement option, please note: The beneficiary's proof of age is required before payments start. The type and frequency of the annuity can only be changed by you. The annuity is subject to legislative requirements, minimum deposit amounts, minimum payment amounts and annuity options available at that time. We will give the details about the annuity to the beneficiary before payments start. Deferred annuities: Please note that the interest earned during the deferral period is taxed on an accrual basis and your beneficiary will receive a tax slip each year leading up to the payment start date. If the beneficiary does not meet our minimum age requirement, or if the death benefit is less than the minimum deposit required, the death benefit will be paid as a lump sum to the beneficiary according to administrative rules. If a beneficiary is a non-resident of Canada for Canadian income tax purposes, their proceeds will be paid out as a lump sum.

By signing below, you: • revoke any prior beneficiary designation(s), • direct Sun Life to pay the death benefit as requested above, • confirm that the annuity will be non-commutable (not cashable or transferable), non-assignable and cannot be redirected.
