This procedure explains how agents or insureds can request changes to the mortgagee clause on an NFIP policy using the Equinox platform. Changes to the mortgagee clause may include updating the mortgagee’s name, address, loan number or adding or removing a mortgagee. Incorrect mortgagee information is a common cause of claim payment delay.
