So people won't make all kinds of false claims just to get money from an insurance company. With the dishonesty in society we can't blame insurance companies for wanting proof of loss before paying a claim.

Do you need to sign a proof of loss statement if the appraiser and umpire decide the claim amount or just sign the settlement check to close the case?
You needn't do either as long as you have given the appraiser full right to negotiate your claim on your behalf. Therefore, when the appraiser signs the appraisal aggreement, the appraisal become binding. The case will be closed at that point, with the exception of a coverage dispute which can still be litigated. To answer the question, it is held in many courts that the signing of the appraisal agreement binds the loss and, therefore, there would be no further need for a proof, nor would it be important for the check to be signed. Once your representative (appraiser) has signed the agreement, you are bound to that settlement.

To get to the route of what your asking: The amount of the LOSS that is deductible is the unrecovered loss. Hence if you have claimed the entire loss as a deduction the amount of insurance you get is income - because essentially, you overdeducted the loss. If you have made no loss deduction claim, then u=insurance is NOT taxable as it is onlyr returning you to the position you were in before the loss.
