Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

No. Unlike many competitors, Destination Travel Group doesn't require a medical questionnaire to apply, even for older applicants or those declaring pre-existing conditions.
Yes, up to age 79. The required stability period scales with age: 90 days for applicants 59 and under, 120 days for ages 60–69, and 180 days for ages 70–79. Pre-existing condition coverage isn't available for applicants 80 and older.
Coverage is selectable from $25,000 up to $300,000. IRCC requires a minimum of $100,000 for Super Visa eligibility. Applicants must be at least 15 days old, with no stated upper age limit to purchase — though pre-existing condition coverage ends at age 80.
Yes, for policies of 180 days or longer with at least $50,000 in coverage. Two installment premiums are due at application, along with a small per-installment fee.
Yes. If you cancel a one-year policy before its effective date and provide proof of visa refusal, you avoid a $150 administrative fee that would otherwise apply. A standard $25 administration fee still applies to refund requests generally.

The Assistance and Claims Administrator (Global Excel Management Inc.) should be contacted before any surgery, or within 24 hours of hospital admission. If you don't make contact within that window without reasonable cause, otherwise-covered benefits may be reduced by 20%.
