Generally you have 30 days to inform your carrier and make appropriate changes to your policy. I am a licensed insurance agent, and this is pretty standard. I t is a grace period, but be prudent and do not wait till the last minute to inform your carrier.

An insurance company cannot drop you in the middle of a claim.

If they have stopped contact with you and have not given you a reason I would contact your state department of insurance and file a complaint.
