Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why D is correct
Under A.R.S. 41-1080, the Arizona Department of Insurance and Financial Institutions may not issue a license until the applicant's lawful presence in the United States is verified. Verification is a condition precedent to licensure, so the application stalls until the applicant supplies acceptable proof.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) Wrong because A.R.S. 41-1080 makes verification a prerequisite; the Department may not issue first and confirm later.
- B) Wrong because the lawful-presence requirement applies to licensure generally; switching to a nonresident application does not bypass it.
- C) Wrong because the Department cannot approve with a flag; issuance is blocked until lawful presence is verified under A.R.S. 41-1080.
Memory hook
No verification, no license — 41-1080 stops the clock.
