The Auto Premium Relief Credit is a credit applied to the premium for active personal auto policies: a 10% credit for qualifying policies between July 1, 2020 and March 31, 2021 and a 5% credit for qualifying policies between April 1, 2021 and May 31, 2021. In effect, the premium relief credit lowers the amount customers pay on their premium for coverage for July 2020 through May 2021.*

The auto premium relief payment was a one-time payment of $50 per personal automobile insured with American Family as of March 11, 2020. The auto premium relief payment did not affect the amount customers paid for their personal auto policy premium.

From the initial round of Auto Premium Relief Payments in April 2020* to the end of the Auto Premium Relief Credit on May 31, 2021,* American Family has provided our customers with more than a year of premium relief to help support them through the most difficult periods of the COVID-19 pandemic. These savings were created in recognition of the decreased driving and accident rates occurring during the pandemic.

As conditions improve and COVID-19 vaccines become more widely available, we expect to see driving and accident rates return to pre-pandemic levels.

Although Auto Premium Relief has ended, American Family continues to offer many savings opportunities for our customers, including discounts for enrolling in KnowYourDrive^®, AutoPay, Full Pay, paperless billing, bundling multiple policies and more.

For more information on how to maximizing your savings and enjoy even more value from your policies, please contact your local agent.

American Family is and will continue to be financially strong. Our financial strength has been re-affirmed by rating agencies Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s (S&P) and A.M. Best.

It was a one-time return of premium directly to American Family Insurance personal auto customers because they were driving less and filing fewer claims during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Premium Relief Payment was a one-time payment of $50.00 per vehicle to eligible customers.

Customers who had a private passenger automobile policy in force as of March 11, 2020, the date the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic, received a payment. Classic and Advance policies were both eligible.

Any Family Car schedule vehicles, including Medium/Heavy trucks, were eligible. Both owned and leased vehicles in this schedule qualify.

Vehicles that were not eligible were: Cycles, Campers, Personal Trailers, Motor Homes, or Specialty Vehicles (golf carts, mini-trucks, personal mobility device, snowmobile, tractors/farm machinery). Non-owners’ policies, such as SR22s, were not eligible.

No. Because the payment was based on a decrease in claims due to the majority of customers currently driving less, the funds are not connected to rates and will not result in a rate increase.

No, it would not be considered a taxable event for the customer, as long as the amount the customer receives does not exceed the amount the customer has paid in premium during the calendar year (not the 6-month policy term).
