Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why B is correct
Under Georgia's Letter of Clearance procedure administered by the Office of Commissioner of Insurance and Safety Fire, a producer who relocates to Georgia may obtain a resident license without again completing prelicensing education or the examination if the application is made within 90 days of the former license's cancellation. Missing the 90-day window means the producer must satisfy the ordinary qualification requirements.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) 6 months overstates the window; the Letter of Clearance exemption is available only if the application is filed within 90 days of the former license's cancellation.
- C) Applying before cancellation is not the trigger — the 90-day clock under Georgia's Letter of Clearance procedure runs from the former license's cancellation date.
- D) The 15-day period relates to late renewal fees, not to the Letter of Clearance, which allows a full 90 days from cancellation.
Memory hook
Moved to Georgia? File within 90 days of cancellation and skip the re-testing.
