Important Information Regarding Guard.me Insurance and COVID-19 

It is very important for you to know that if your policy is valid, you are covered for all new and emergent conditions and medically necessary treatment, including COVID-19. You can check the dates of your coverage on your guard.me ID Card. 
 
Coverage for COVID-19 does not include costs associated with self-isolation or a mandated quarantine. Private accommodation and day-to-day expenses (food and non-emergency transportation) are not eligible for reimbursement. Only new and emergent conditions and medically necessary treatments are eligible. This includes private-duty care by a qualified nurse if it is medically necessary and prescribed by a certified health professional. 
 
If your policy is going to expire, and you will not be continuing full-time studies (and therefore automatically extending your policy), you can purchase insurance directly through guard.me’s website. You will be required to provide proof of insurance in the last 60 days. 
 
If you arrived early and are waiting for classes to start, you may be eligible to purchase early arrival insurance via the main guard.me website by providing your acceptance letter. 
 
If you suspect you are ill with COVID-19 or have been exposed to COVID-19 follow the appropriate COVID-19 Process.

Your immigration status in Canada will not be affected by getting tested for or having COVID-19 so please follow the advice from our Campus Health Centre or the Government of Ontario regarding testing. 
 
If you have questions about your guard.me insurance, you can contact guard.me directly at admin@guard.me or 1.877.873.8447, OR contact your SLC International Student Advisor.

For IT resources and support, please email its@sl.on.ca or call 613.544.5400 ext. 4357 and leave a message. 

There are resource guides for students to help answer common IT questions.
