If a 17-year-old has his own insurance in North Carolina will his parents' insurance premiums go up?

That depends on weather or not your 17 year old has their insurance on the parents policy. It will go up if the child is on the parents policy, but if the child has their own policy, it won't. But it will be cheaper if the child is added on to the parents policy. My husband is a North Carolina State Trooper so I know alot about insurance. Also, call around and go online for the cheapest rates.


How can a parent remove a child from an auto insurance policy after he's turned 18 years old and has moved away from home?

Just call up your insurance company/agent, and tell them that you request his name to be removed from your policy. They will then issue you a new policy w/ id cards. Some insurance companies require that the 18 year old has acquired auto insurance elsewhere before removing them from the parent's policy. This may prove difficult for the parent who may be forced by the insurance company to carry auto insurance on their child indefinitely until such a time when insurance can be obtained.

If both spouses have health insurance which one is primary and which is secondary?

It depends. If there are just the two of you, you are 'primary' on your own policy, and your spouse is primary on his/her own policy. By default you would be 'secondary' on your spouse's policy. If the two of you have kids, you can elect either of the parents' insurance carriers to be primary, but you must do this officially, by filing the proper records with the carrier who you want to be primary. Typically, you need to decide which policy will be primary for the kids each year, as you will need to add the kids to one of your policies. You make this choice by reviewing both policies' coverages, copays and costs. The other policy, by default, then becomes secondary. If you just had a child, you should call your human resources department and/or health insurance company to work out the details and get the child properly insured.

Can a 25 year old be on their parents' health insurance?

One person said "Probably not. Check the definitions in your policy.. ." But, actually, that is no longer the case. it has changed in some states, such as Utah, New Hampshire, and Montana. It may have changed in yours. Some states now DO let a dependent child remain on his or her parents' health insurance, as long as the child is unmarried and has no dependents of their own. Check the website of your state or ask your parents' health insurance provider-- your state may be included in the new rules.
