TruStage policies are accepted at most Canadian funeral establishments as payment towards a guaranteed funeral. You may also wish to assign a beneficiary to your Plan. This beneficiary will be the person taking care of your final wishes and affairs. They can use the funds in your Plan to pay for your funeral services, last bill payments, honorariums and much more.
How much will you need? Everyone has an idea of what they may want, but to help you we've put together an average price list* based on current costs in Canada. You determine what you want to plan for, and we'll put coverage in place for you at your chosen level.

EXECUTOR PROTECTION
An Executor Assistance & Emergency Fund
If you wish to put aside funds for your Executor or representative's benefit, we suggest you take into account:
-
Family members who may need financial assistance to travel home to attend your funeral or memorial.
-
A ball-park amount of any final bills that may need to be paid immediately.
-
Any lingering medical expenses.
-
Rent or mortgage payments until your Estate has passed through Probate.
-
Fees and costs related to collecting, printing and mailing your Estate paperwork.
To help alleviate the burden placed on your Executor, select our Final Documents Service, which can be included in your plan total.
We suggest a plan amount of $2,500 to $5,000 to cover any Executor costs, depending on your circumstances.
