You do not have to buy on site caravan insurance

Posted by Lachlan Bethel in Top Insurance Quotes

The site owners of your chosen caravan locations may try to give you the impression that you are obliged to buy their on site caravan insurance if you want to locate your caravan on their site.

In fact, nothing could be further from the truth. You are under absolutely no obligation to buy on site caravan insurance.

The site owner may have every right to ensure that you have appropriate insurance cover prior to allowing you access to their site and if so, this would be perfectly understandable – particularly from a third party liability viewpoint.

Accidents can and do happen and having the financial security of caravan insurance behind you may be indispensable.

Being able to choose your own policy though may be just as important.

IRS Guidance on Reporting Group Health Insurance

Posted by Lachlan Bethel in Top Insurance Quotes

Today, the Internal Revenue Service issued interim guidance to employers on informational reporting on each employee’s annual Form W-2 of the cost of the health insurance coverage they sponsor for employees. The IRS is also requesting comments on this interim guidance. The IRS emphasized that this new reporting to employees is for their information only, to inform them of the cost of their health coverage, and does not cause excludable employer-provided health coverage to become taxable; employer-provided health coverage continues to be excludable from an employee’s income, and is not taxable.

Reporting is Voluntary for All Employers for 2011 and Small Employers for 2012

The Affordable Care Act provides that employers are required to report the cost of employer-provided health care coverage on the Form W-2.

Points to note with static caravan cover

Posted by Lachlan Bethel in Top Insurance Quotes

If you are looking at a number of quotations relating to static caravan cover, you may be wondering how to choose between them.

Here are a few points that you may wish to keep in mind:

  • some static caravan cover may offer relatively limited protection for your contents and you may find that certain categories of item are excluded or that there are certain maximum payment values applied that may not be reasonable in your particular situation;
  • some policies may offer a range of discount opportunities if you adopt certain good practices these may be worth looking out for, as they may offer you the chance to save some money on your premium;
  • it may be typically advisable to carefully consider any plan to locate your caravan on a site that is prone to flooding, as apart from anything else, this may cause difficulties in the case of some static caravan insurance;
  • wintertime is typically a high-risk period for caravans and insurance companies, therefore, if you store your caravan over the winter in a secure CaSSOA approved facility, you may benefit from lower premiums;
  • not all policies will be happy to cover awnings, so if you have one, this might prove to be something that makes one policy more attractive than another;
  • it might be highly advisable to be sure what sort of replacement would be provided/funded, in the event that your static caravan was completely destroyed some policies may be rather better in this respect than others;
  • finally, some static caravan cover may be very specific indeed as to how your caravan must be anchored and secured make sure that you select a policy where you are confident that you will be able to comply with any such conditions, if they exist.

Insurance protection for your valuables

Posted by Lachlan Bethel in Top Insurance Quotes

If you’ve inherited or were given a valuable piece of jewelry or art, you need to do more than find a special spot for safe keeping. You need to make sure you have enough insurance to protect it.

The standard home insurance policy’s coverage limits for theft of jewelry, for instance, is usually $1,500, according to the Insurance Information Institute (I.I.I.).
