Driver Information Section
For each driver listed on the plan, fill in the following details carefully. Inaccurate information can affect your premium rates or cause a claim dispute later.
- Marital status and date of birth
- Gender and date first licensed
- Driver's license number and issuing state
- Social Security Number (required for consumer reports)
Vehicle and Coverage Section
For each car to be covered, enter the following details. Having your vehicle registration and current insurance documents on hand makes this step easier.
- Anti-theft device information (if applicable)
- Primary vehicle use: business or pleasure
- Percentage of use allocated per listed driver
- Vehicle garaging address (local or mailing)
- Current carrier name and existing bodily injury limits
Check your state's required minimum liability levels before choosing your plan coverage. State requirements for bodily injury and property damage liability vary across the country. Failing to meet state requirements can result in fines or loss of registration. Many states also require uninsured motorist protection or personal injury coverage as part of the general state requirements for all drivers.
Driving History and Information Release
List all drivers and disclose any accidents, violations, or claims from the past three to five years. The information release section authorizes the carrier to obtain consumer reports on your behalf. Read this section carefully before signing. Both the applicant and the broker must sign and date the completed form before it is submitted.
Step 3: Once all fields are complete, click "Done" to save your finished application as a PDF.

Frequently Asked Questions
What information do I need to complete an automobile insurance application?
You will need your driver's license, Social Security Number, vehicle identification number (VIN), details about your current carrier and plan, and a record of any recent accidents or violations. Having this information ready saves time and reduces errors.
Do coverage requirements differ by state?
Yes. State requirements for minimum liability coverage vary significantly. Most states require at least bodily injury liability and property damage liability. Some states also require personal injury protection, uninsured motorist coverage, or no-fault insurance. Your insurer will confirm the specific state requirements for your location. Third-party liability coverage may also be mandatory in some jurisdictions.
What happens after I submit the form?
The insurance carrier reviews your application and may order third-party consumer reports to verify your driving record and other provided details. They then issue a plan offer with a quoted premium. Once you accept, you will receive your insurance ID cards, a declarations page, and full coverage documents. Keep a copy of the completed application and all plan documents in a safe location.
Can this form be used for commercial vehicle coverage?
This form is designed for personal auto insurance applications. If you need coverage for a commercial vehicle or a business fleet, a separate commercial auto application is generally required. Speak with your agent or insurer representative to identify the correct form for your needs.
How long does the process take?
Most auto insurance applications take between 15 and 30 minutes to complete if you have all required information on hand. After submission, many insurers can provide a same-day or next-day plan decision. Third-party report checks can add additional time to the review process for some applicants. Complex applications with multiple vehicles or drivers may take longer to process and approve.
