A discussion on a different thread about liability insurance led me to this question. I’m a freelancer/contractor at the company I work for but I’m not covered on their liability insurance.

Re: PR Application with no Job?
I was similarly worried when I applied for PR. Covid was raging and I was concerned the company I was working for would go belly up. Pretty much the day I became eligible, I got my application in.

Re: iDeCo Application with Monex 2024
Had the same issue of a difference in name between Monex and JSI&T. One phone call to Monex sorted it out.

Re: Is it worth paying off your student loans early? UK
Use the money to pay for your Masters degree, get a higher paying salary and pay more back in your monthly payments if you want to pay it off faster. If you ever have a change in circumstances, you will definitely regret having paid it off, especially if it were in a year where the interest rate had...
