The CICC insurance plan covers claims for an error, omission or a negligent act in the rendering of services as an Immigration Consultant in accordance with regulations of the CICC.

Any alleged or potential claim received by an CICC licensee (verbally or in writing) should be reported promptly to Victor Canada. If a CICC licensee is aware of any circumstance which could reasonably give rise to a CLAIM, the CICC licensee shall give written notice thereof to Victor Canada as soon as practicable. In other words, do not ignore circumstances and report any third-party complaints against you immediately, so Victor Canada can properly investigate the claim on your behalf.

It is the responsibility and obligation of the CICC licensee to personally report any potential or alleged claim to Victor Canada. Upon receiving verbal or written notice, the claim should be reported directly by the Insured (CICC licensee) and not from the third party making the complaint against the CICC licensee. Victor Canada needs the CICC licensees version to confirm the specific details of the alleged claim and to determine coverage under the program.
