Is There A Time Limit On Insurance Claims For Hurricane Damage To Roofs, I Want To File A Claim Now?

Question by wpb200129 | Posted in Insurance

I am a salesman for a roofing contractor and I am dispiriting to start filing claims for homeowners who didn't realize their homes needed to be repaired and I be to make sure I am not setting myself and the homeowner up for failure

Answer: Lots of good fortune. The problem is, if they don't have a hole in the roof from a tree blowing in, or some other obvious problem that was readily at, the best you can hope for is a contribution of hurricane damage with a wearing out roof. The insurance company WON'T pay for the worn out part of the roof, and the deductible is on the whole high enough to cover the few missing shingles that the hurricane actually blew off.

Are Claims Received For Renters Insurance Due To Hurricane Katrina Taxable?

Question by ogrisson | Posted in United States

The military paid for my losses on a depreciated outline then sent me a 1099-misc with the insurance amount paid, on line 7. I thought section 7 was reticent for non-employee compensation, i.e. goverment contractors. Should this have been reported to the IRS on a 1099-misc? Isn't this considered a MIAs loss? I didn't think that this payout was a taxable item because we have to replace all items that were distracted, also we are not in a better position prior to the hurricane, if anything, WORSE!

Answer: No. Insurance claims and reimbursements are not taxable. It's like a court sentence (unless it's for backwages).
