Evidence of Insurability

The original HEB Manitoba Life Insurance Plan Change Form must be returned to your employer.
If your request to increase your coverage is approved, you will be notified with written confirmation. At that time, your employer will adjust your Life Insurance premiums accordingly.
Note: If your request to increase your coverage is denied, Canada Life will notify you of their decision in writing.
Evidence of Insurability is not required for increases to insurance made within 60 days of experiencing a recognized significant life event.
