Rewrite to new account on a future date beyond the policy term
When you rewrite a policy to a new account, the effective date of the policy can be a future date beyond the policy term and any pending renewals. Policy transactions on the source policy have some restrictions.
In the illustration below, Account #1 is the source policy with a cancellation date of July 1, 2020. Account #2 is the rewritten policy with an effective date of March 1, 2025.
The following table shows restrictions for policy transactions on the source policy.
Policy transaction |
Restriction |
|---|---|
Submission |
Not applicable. |
Policy Change |
Not allowed on and after the effective date of the rewritten policy (Term D). |
Cancellation |
Not allowed on and after the cancellation date of the source policy. Does not differ from the usual behavior. |
Reinstatement |
Not allowed on and after the start date of the rewritten policy (Term D), because the reinstated period would overlap the rewritten policy. In addition, a canceled period that overlaps the start date of the rewritten policy cannot be reinstated. |
Rewrite |
Not allowed on and after the start date of the rewritten policy because the rewritten policy overlaps Term D or its successors. Rewrite is allowed if the expiration date does not overlap term D. |
Renewal |
Not allowed on or after the effective date of the rewritten policy (Term D). Term C can be renewed as long as the expiration date does not overlap the effective date of Term D. |
Audit |
Allowed. |
Rewrite New Account |
Not allowed. |
