You have a destructive function in your chain, which alters the original
jQuery object (siblings()), try another sequence and use find instead of
siblings to find children:
$("#claims").clone().appendTo("#ap").find("input.contact").val("");
Also note that I changed the selector to "input.contact" for better
performance.
