Business Overhead Expense Disability Insurance Vancouver
Disability insurance is usually difficult to apply for because the insurers require both proof of health and income. For self employed people or businesses, sometimes there is a significant recurring overhead expense, such as rent, leases, salaries but the net income is variable and sometimes slim. If the net income is slim then insuring only the net income is not that meaningful to the insured person.
