Frequently asked questions
How long does adding or removing a dependent typically take?
Processing times vary by insurer, commonly from a few days to several weeks depending on documentation, medical requirements and insurer backlogs.
Will the premium change when I add a dependent?
Adding a dependent often affects premium; we estimate potential premium adjustments during the consultation and confirm exact changes after insurer review.
Can I add a newborn immediately after birth?
Most insurers allow adding newborns within a specified window (typically 30–60 days) using the birth certificate and Emirates ID; we assist to meet those deadlines.
What if a dependent has pre-existing conditions?
Pre-existing conditions may require additional underwriting or waiting periods. We coordinate with insurers and recommend relevant coverage options or guidance based on the condition.
Do employers need to be involved for corporate policy changes?
Yes — for corporate policies HR or authorized signatories must approve dependent additions/removals and provide employer documentation; we liaise directly with HR teams.
