Sinkhole Claims Damage Requirements

• Sinkhole claims with a date of loss prior to 2012 must have actual physical damage caused by sinkhole activity.
• Sinkhole claims filed on a policy issued or renewed on or after January 1, 2012, must have structural damage to the principal building (including the foundation) caused by sinkhole activity.
