When you resign from your employment with the University you will have decisions to make regarding your pension plan and benefits.

Extended Health and Dental Plan Coverage

Coverage will cease on the last day of the month in which employment terminates.  Outstanding Extended Health claims under these plans must be received by Pacific Blue Cross by June 30th of the calendar year following the year in which the expense being claimed was incurred. Dental claims must be received no later than 1 year from date of service. Claim forms may be downloaded from:  .  If you are currently under dental treatment, inform your dentist of the expiry date of your coverage.

You may convert your coverage to an individual plan from Pacific Blue Cross if you live in British Columbia, or an individual plan offered by your local Blue Cross organization if you live elsewhere in Canada. To convert coverage you must ensure that your application and full payment is received by Blue Cross within 60 days of the date your group plan terminates. Please contact Pacific Blue Cross for further details.

Basic Life, Optional Life Insurance Plans

Coverage will cease on your last paid day. You may convert your current coverage to an individual policy.  By converting the coverage, it will allow someone, who is uninsurable, an opportunity to maintain their life insurance without having to submit a Medical Report.  It is important to remember that the conversion transaction (application and premiums paid) must be completed within 31 days of the termination date.  Conversion forms are available on our page.

Group Long Term Disability

Coverage will cease on your last paid day.

Pension

If you have funds in the Academic Pension plan with Sun Life, you will be provided with a package of information pertaining to your pension and transfer options within 60 days of your termination. You can either leave your account in the Plan until such time as you want to access the funds or transfer your account out of the Plan as outlined in the package.
