I wrote a policy last month and haven’t received any commission. When can I expect to be paid?

This will depend on the carrier and their payment schedule, as they can vary greatly.  Carriers typically pay daily, weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or semi-monthly; they pay based on issue date, premium payment date, or effective date. Some carriers pay agents direct, and some pay through the FMO (Empower Brokerage).  When researching commissions, the first step would be to verify the policy was issued and paid; commissions would not pay until the policy is issued (and paid in most cases).  The second step would be to verify the agent contract is set up correctly, commissions would pay based on the agent contract; verify EFT/Payment information and contract level.  Once those points are verified, an inquiry form would need to be submitted, you can find this form here.
