Submitting Your OCF Forms Late: Why Deadlines Matter
A Costly Mistake at the Insurance Office
Kevin waited six months before filing his OCF-1 form. By then, he was told he missed the 30-day deadline, and his claim was denied.
How to Avoid This Mistake
OCF-1 forms should be submitted within 30 days of the accident. Always file as soon as possible.
Technicalities & Case Law
In Turnbull v. Coseco, 2007 ONCA 575, the court upheld a denial due to late submission. Don’t wait—act fast.
