Some states require the check to be sent in a certain number of days about 15 or 20 if the loss and coverage is certain. Check with your states department of insurance for your specific time period. If there are questions, and many times there are, about the circumstances of the fire, or if coverage is in question, the insurance company will not pay until those issues are resolved. It is routine to investigate almost all insured home fires for arson, but that usually takes place within a week or two of the fire.

How long do you have to file a claim on your house insurance in va?

When you file a Homeowners insurance claim does insurance company cut check to you or your mortgage company?
It depends on the language of the policy. Some cut a check directly to you if the claim is under a certain monetary amount. But usually according to you escrow documents, the contract says the bank will need to be put on the check. If they cut a check to you mortgage company you name will also be included on the check and they will mail the check to you. The insurance does this for many reasons, but one is, let's say you foreclose on the home and keep the insurance money; the bank will make a claim to the insurance because the bank owns the home too and they are listed as a payee as well as you. The insurance will have to pay the claim twice due to their error.
If you sell your fire damaged home prior to the payment of the insurance claim are you still entitled to the insurance money?
Or nothing at all. You owned the house at the time of the fire. It was YOUR property that was damaged, and you owned fire insurance to cover yourself against a loss from fire. When you sold your fire-damaged home, you took a hit on the sale price: you didn't get as much as you would have had the house been perfect. You are entitled to whatever the claim adjuster estimated the cost of the repair would be.

Who do I claim from after i accidentally started my car in gear and it smashed into the garage door is it my home insurance or my car insurance there's no damage to my car?
In most States, this will be a homeowner claim. You may be able to imagine that this is a similar type of peril as if an aircraft had crashed into your home... which would also be covered under your home policy - assuming your homeowner's policy form does not exclude that sort of coverage. Since its your home that is now damaged, this is where Id start my claim. Your car is not damaged therefore it needs no claim for damages, although your car insurance's property damage may cover this as well. Id call and check with your insurance companies on this.
