Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why C is correct
G.S. 58-33-66(a) allows a temporary license to be issued to a producer's spouse, court-appointed personal representative, or guardian after the producer's death or disability, and limits its duration to 180 days, extendable only for good cause. No examination is required, and the temporary license terminates upon transfer of the business.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) Ninety days is the adjuster learner's permit period under G.S. 58-33-70(c), not the temporary-license cap.
- B) Thirty-one days is the conversion-application deadline under G.S. 58-53-55, unrelated to temporary licenses.
- D) Eighteen months is the group continuation period under G.S. 58-53-35(a)(1); temporary licenses run no longer than 180 days under G.S. 58-33-66(a).
Memory hook
Temporary means temporary: 180 days, then transfer the business.
