739-13        CAR INSURANCE

 

This supportive service is limited to liability insurance for the primary vehicle needed to transport family members to and from employment.  

 

Clients need to demonstrate that they have explored the market to find the most affordable policy.  This supportive service payment should always be made to the client with the reason specified on the authorization.  Clients must provide a receipt that verifies the purchase.

 

Liability insurance policies paid by supportive services cannot exceed a 12-month term. Unit supervisors and Assistant Regional Managers, however, may approve extensions on a case by case basis.  Car insurance is an ongoing expense that must be worked into the family’s budget.  It is extremely important to review this with clients to ensure that they can cover the ongoing cost of maintaining car insurance.

 

Note:

High-risk liability insurance (SR-22) cannot be purchased.
