RETIRED AND FORMER CF MEMBERS

As with all our clients, retired and former CF members will find competitive prices at CANEX. For members still active within the CF, it’s never too early to contact SISIP Financial Services and explore the retirement planning options that will make the difference in their retired years.

As “authorized patrons,” former and retired members of the CF benefit from the activities, services and programs available through CANEX and SISIP Financial Services.

Retirement planning at any age

SISIP Financial Services provides life insurance along with a full range of financial planning services, as well as Canadian Forces Personnel Assistance Fund (CFPAF) loans and grants programs. The SISIP Financial Planning service is unique as it provides clients with universal access to the services of a Certified Financial Planner (CFP). It also gives access to a complete financial plan tailored to the needs of the clients based on their personal situation and the realities of military life.

Former/retired members can also apply for mess membership. They can enjoy full access to mess facilities and services.

Reaching out to former CF members is important to the CFPSA. As we continue to explore ways to do so, we also are developing programs, activities and services to meet the needs of this important segment.

Support to retired/former members in 2002/2003:

• $29.5 million in benefits and vocational rehabilitation support was provided under the Long Term Disability (LTD) programs to former CF members.
• $10 million of life insurance benefits were paid to beneficiaries, including retired/former members.
