If my adultson moves out, how canI get him off of my car insurance?
My almost 22 year-old son currently has no license (lost for 3 more months – unpaid parking tickets which need to be paid before he can drive his car “legally”). He is living with friends who are available to drive him to/from work as a temporary fix. He may show up from time to time for clothes. His hope is to pay his fines and move into the city where he will not need to drive and can rely on public transportation. He says that he has no desire to get his license back. I want him off my insurance. What can I do?

If your son is not legally a part of your house hold any longer AND he does not posses a valid driver's license then call you insurance company and tell them that. Then tell them that you wish to take his name off the policy as a covered person. Did you have an insurance broker that placed the insurance for you? If you did them I would go and see him or her and get the to help with all of this. And I would write a letter by certified mail to your insurance carrier on the matter as well. Take a glance at your policy too just to be sure of the correct process that they may have written in there for you to follow and the correct address. Good luck.
