An agent gives a conditional receipt to a client for an insurance policy after collecting the initial premium. when will the policy become effective?

If the insurer takes the policy as applied for the coverage will take effect when the conditions of the receipt are met and from the date of the application or medical exam. The two types of conditional receipts are insurability and approval. The insurability receipt provides interim coverage as the applicant is insurable while the approval receipt will not begin until the insurer will approve the claim. However, conditional receipts will provide the coverage if the applicant is insurable as applied for and coverage will not be delivered until the applicant accepts the coverage if the insurer concerns a counter-offer because the applicant is substandard risk.
