Citizens has made two enhancements in PolicyCenter^® to assist agents with servicing their customers. These new enhancements are effective immediately and are outlined below.

Cancelling a Bound Submission

Bound-Approved and Bound-Unapproved new-business submissions when Citizens has applied payment.

PolicyCenter will approve the cancellation request automatically; however, an Underwriter must approve a cancellation when any of the following are true:

• It requires a mailing address change.
• The effective date is backdated more than 30 days.
• The reason is Insured Request – Insured deceased.

Notes

• A pending cancellation for nonpayment supersedes an agent request for cancellation.
• If no payment has been received, the agent must withdraw the submission.

For step-by-step instructions for withdrawing a submission and cancelling a policy, see the Resources section below.

Streamlined Mailings to Policy Mailing Address
