Question

Can my fiancé and I share an insurance policy?

My insurance company is saying that I need my own policy, instead of sharing one with my fiancé, because we don't live together.  I only stay at my own apartment two days a week, but I stay at my fiance's address five days a week.  Does this count as "living together" for insurance purposes?

No, your rates should not change by putting the car in your son's name if he is already listed on the policy. Who the car is registered under does not impact the rate at all.
