Insurance protection is an important part of your financial portfolio and provides security in times of need. If, however, you decide that you no longer want your voluntary insurance coverage, you may cancel your coverage at any time by completing a Cancellation Request Form and sending it to us (instructions are at the bottom of the form) or by calling 833-585-1869.
Customers that purchased voluntary insurance or other optional products through OneMain Financial may cancel their coverage at any time. If you cancel within 60 days of the loan date or, depending on the product purchased, the date you received your coverage, you will receive a full premium or fee refund for the unused product and any finance charge on the premium or fee. If you cancel after 60 days from the loan date, the Lender will refund you the unearned premium or fee and you will not be charged the remaining finance charge on the unearned premium or fee. As permitted by state law, the Lender will apply any refunds to the loan to reduce the amount owed on your loan and your monthly loan payment will be recalculated.

Claims – Life
Click on the links below to view the answer you need:
In most cases, no. However, we reserve the right to require a certified original death certificate.
Yes. A fully completed Beneficiary Information Section of the claim form is needed for each named beneficiary.
While life insurance proceeds themselves are generally not subject to income tax for beneficiaries, any interest earned on the death benefit after the insured's death is taxable income.
Federal law requires a 1099-INT tax form be issued to report the taxable interest income of $10.00 or more.
Claims – Disability
Click on the links below to view the answer you need:
For Credit Disability Insurance, payment is generally made to your lender and is applied directly to your account. Each day paid is based on 1/30th of the regularly scheduled loan payment. Since we pay based on a daily calculated rate, any payment covering less than 30 days will not cover the entire monthly payment.
For a Disability Income Protection Policy, payment will be made directly to you. We pay 1/30th of your monthly benefit per day of disability.
Any costs associated with completing a claim form are the insured’s responsibility.
Yes, even though you are receiving social security disability benefits, a physician who can verify your Total Disability and, in most states, verification you have remained under the care of the physician, must complete the claim form.
Claim form should be signed and dated after the waiting period has been met. Most Credit Disability Certificates of Insurance have a 7 or 14 day waiting period. The Disability Income Protection Plan has a 30 day waiting period. Refer to your Certificate of Insurance or policy for your waiting period.
Early loan payoffs are not a provision of your policy. If you remain totally disabled through the expiration date of your coverage, Credit Disability Insurance may pay off your loan. It depends on the status of your account, your disability status, and the information submitted to us. Each day of total disability paid is based on 1/30th of the regularly scheduled loan payment.
Yes. Refer to your Certificate of Insurance or policy.
Claims – Involuntary Unemployment
Click on the links below to view the answer you need:
If requested, previous employment information may include:
- Layoff letter from the employer; or
- Separation Letter from the employer; or
- Exit Letter from the employer; or
- Letter of Determination from the state employment office; it must provide the date employment ended and the reason it ended.
Claim form should be signed and dated at least 30 consecutive days after your last day employed. Most Certificates of Insurance have a 30 day waiting period. Refer to your Certificate of Insurance for your waiting period.
Submit a claim form so we may get the claim started while you are waiting for the state to make their determination. Most certificates require you to be receiving state unemployment benefits, without a period of disqualification, before a claim payment will be made.
Yes. Most certificates require you to be receiving state unemployment benefits, without a period of disqualification, before a claim payment will be made. If the state reverses their decision and state unemployment benefits are paid, without a disqualification period, submit the claim along with proof of state benefit payments received (benefit history, debit card or bank card statements).
Submit a claim form along with paperwork from your employer verifying receipt of these benefits. If this is not available, provide a signed, dated statement regarding the details of your employer paid benefits.
Yes, submit a completed claim form and documentation from the state showing the reason your benefits were denied.
The insurance company may need to verify your employment information.
To be eligible for a benefit, most Certificates of Insurance require that you register for work with the state employment office or a recognized employment agency within 30 consecutive days after your last day employed, qualify for state unemployment benefits (if required in your Certificate of Insurance), and remain actively registered for work during each 30 day period of your claim. Documents which provide this information are required for claim payment.
For each 30 day period of your claim, proof may include:
- A copy/screen print of your state unemployment benefit history; or
- Copies of state unemployment benefits checks; or
- Once your claim has been approved, a copy of your bank/debit card statement(s) which show dated state unemployment benefit deposits
Important: Dates must be visible on screen prints and documents.
Once your state unemployment benefits have been exhausted, documentation which verifies you remain involuntarily unemployed and actively registered for work with the state employment office or a recognized employment agency during each 30 day period of your claim is required. Proof may include:
- Dated screenprint of the state employment website showing active registration during each 30 day period of your claim; or
- Copies of monthly job application confirmations from potential employers dated during each 30 day period of your claim. This could be a copy or screen print of the email confirmation the potential employer sends you indicating they received your application.
Important: Dates must be visible on screen prints and documents.
For Credit Involuntary Unemployment Insurance, payment is generally made to your lender and is applied directly to your account. Each day paid is based on 1/30th of the regularly scheduled loan payment. Since we pay based on a daily calculated rate, any payment covering less than 30 days will not cover the entire monthly payment.
Your Certificate of Insurance excludes benefits when unemployment is due to voluntary resignation or quitting your job. However, if your involuntary unemployment is determined by the State Employment Office as just cause and you qualify for state unemployment benefits without a disqualification period, your claim should be submitted for review.
Federal law requires a 1099 tax form be issued to customers receiving $600 or more in Credit IUI benefits in a tax year.

2. The Actual Cash Value of the Insured Collateral;
3. The Net Loan Balance; or

Contact the police or local tow companies to find the location of the vehicle. Notify us of the location at 1-800-307-0048 so we can send an adjuster to inspect the vehicle.
Because this is Collateral Protection Insurance, any claim payment under CPI coverage is sent directly to the lender as the lender is the first named insured on the policy.

Contact the department that responded to the scene of the accident. They should be able to provide information on how to obtain their report.
