Before you make a claim

Check your policy to make sure your condition meets the definition of disability and that you are eligible for the benefit.

Also note that to receive benefits, the number of days you're disabled must be longer than the waiting period indicated in your policy.

4 steps of the claims process

  1. Information

  2. Document­ation

    Fill out the Disability claim form and ask your doctor to complete the Physician's statement.

    Gather any other supporting documents required. Then send everything through our secure site or by mail (address listed on the form).

    Good to know

    You're responsible for any fees your doctor charges to complete the medical statement.

  3. Analysis

    Once we receive the required documents, we review your claim. Then we contact you to let you know if your claim is approved. We also establish the payment method, if necessary.

  4. Payment

    If your claim is approved, you receive your benefits after the waiting period.

What's the waiting period?

To receive your monthly benefit, you must wait a certain amount of time after the date you became disabled.

You can find the waiting period and any conditions that apply in your policy.
