Why B is correct
Under TIC 4003.001 a Texas agent license runs for a two-year term, and TDI sends a renewal notice 90 days before expiration so the licensee has time to complete continuing education, pay the renewal fee and renew before the term ends. Because the license expires by its own terms, the agent, not TDI, bears the responsibility to act on that notice; letting the term lapse without renewal and compliance leads to cancellation of the license.
Why the other options are wrong
- A) TDI does send an advance renewal notice, and renewal is not automatic.
- C) The term is two years, not one year.
- D) Texas licenses expire on their own terms and must be renewed; they do not continue indefinitely.
Memory hook
Two-year license, notice sent 90 days early.
