ORLANDO, Fla. \u2013 USAA says it is giving Florida members a big round of financial relief through lower auto insurance rates and dividend payments\u2014and the company points to Florida\u2019s property insurance litigation reforms<\/a> as one reason the market is improving.<\/p>\n

In a new release<\/a>, USAA said rising prices have been squeezing family budgets across the country. The company says it is trying to help military families save money in several ways, including insurance rate cuts, dividends (money returned to members), safe-driving discounts and some banking benefits.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s happening in Florida<\/p>\n

USAA called Florida a major example of these savings.<\/p>\n

The company said that between December 2025 and July 2026, it will provide nearly $1 billion in targeted rate reductions and direct returns to eligible Florida members. USAA said this includes an average 14% decrease in auto insurance rates in Florida, spread across two rate filings.<\/p>\n

Great news from @USAA<\/a>! Thanks to legislative reforms, $500 million in dividends will be distributed to approximately 830,000 FL USAA auto policy members. <\/p>\n

Beginning next week, eligible current policyholders are expected to receive an average dividend payment of about $760, with\u2026<\/p>\n

USAA also said it paid $160 million in insurance dividends for eligible Florida members in December 2025.<\/p>\n

New dividend announced<\/p>\n

USAA also announced a $500 million dividend that will go to some Florida auto policyholders.<\/p>\n

The company said the dividend will be sent to about 830,000 members who had USAA auto policies between 2023 and 2025. Starting June 15, eligible current policyholders in Florida are expected to receive an average payment of about $760, and more than a quarter could receive more than $1,000, according to USAA.<\/p>\n

Why USAA says this is possible<\/p>\n

USAA said auto insurance rates have climbed across the industry in recent years because of natural disasters, inflation, and legal costs.<\/p>\n

In Florida, USAA pointed to the state\u2019s 2022\u20132023 property insurance litigation reforms, saying changes meant to cut down on costly lawsuits helped improve market conditions. USAA said those improvements helped make it possible to return more value to members through dividends and rate reductions.<\/p>\n

\u201cFlorida\u2019s civil litigation and tort reforms have curbed legal system abuse, helping reduce the legal costs that were a significant driver of premium increases, enabling USAA to pass meaningful savings directly to members,\u201d the release reads.<\/p>\n

Florida Lt. Gov. Jay Collins also praised the move, taking partial credit for the legislation he says helps insurers like USAA reinvest into Florida markets.<\/p>\n

Thanks to the insurance and tort reform legislation I voted for in 2022 while in the senate, insurers are reinvesting in Florida. <\/p>\n

USAA will return $1 billion to eligible veterans and military families in our state. Through rate reductions and direct returns, Floridians can feel\u2026<\/p>\n

\u2014 Jay Collins (@JayCollinsFL) June 8, 2026<\/a> Other ways members may save<\/p>\n

USAA also highlighted programs that can help members lower costs day to day, including SafePilot and SafePilot Miles, which can offer discounts based on driving behavior and mileage.<\/p>\n

USAA Bank also said it has reduced or removed certain banking fees and continues to offer credit products with competitive rates.<\/p>\n

What Florida members should do<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a USAA auto policyholder in Florida, keep an eye out for messages from USAA about whether you qualify for the dividend, especially around June 15. You can also check whether safe-driving and banking programs could help you save more.<\/p>\n
