Frequently asked questions about using the Insurance NCJUA Application
-
Can this application be e-signed?
Yes. Electronic signatures are legally valid under the federal ESIGN Act and state electronic transaction laws when intent and consent are demonstrated and records are retained in a reproducible form.
-
Is notarization required?
Not all states require notarization for insurance applications; some carriers request notarized signatures. Check state notary rules and the carrier's submission requirements before executing the form.
-
What if the TIN is missing or incorrect?
A missing or incorrect taxpayer identification number can trigger backup withholding or delay underwriting. Provide accurate SSN/TIN and corrected forms promptly to avoid administrative penalties.
-
How should I correct a submitted application?
Contact the submitting producer or carrier to request a corrected application. In many cases the insurer will require a new signed form rather than edits to the original.
-
Can remote online notarization be used?
RON availability depends on state law and the notary's authorization. If RON is permitted in your state, retain the session recording and notary journal per state retention rules.
-
What attachments are essential?
Attach prior policy declarations, loss runs, vehicle registration, and any required authorizations. Missing attachments are the most common cause of underwriting follow-up.
