Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why A is correct
Under N.Y. Ins. Law §2132(c)(1), a licensee must complete 15 continuing education credits in each biennial licensing period, with a filing fee payable per license under §2132(j). New York has a single flat requirement - there are no tiered hour schedules based on experience or license type.
Why the other options are wrong
- B) Higher tiered hour totals are not New York law; the flat requirement is 15 credits per biennial period.
- C) Credits are counted over the two-year licensing period, not year by year.
- D) The New York licensing period is biennial, so no three-year accumulation cycle exists.
Memory hook
New York CE = 15 credits every 2 years, flat - no tiers, no annual counts.
