How it Works

Identity Fraud Expense Coverage applies to NY home, condo, and renters policies.

  • Identity Fraud (ID Fraud ) is an optional coverage that provides $15,000 per occurrence and $30,000 for incurred expenses resulting from a covered claim.
  • Coverage must be added to the primary home.
  • Any act or series of acts committed by any one person is considered one ID Fraud act, even if continuing into a subsequent policy period.
  • For coverage benefits to apply, members must report the claim and submit receipts, bills, or records supporting the loss. In addition, losses paid under this endorsement are subject to qualified claim rules.
