A voluntarily terminated producer's license may be reinstated during the same license period if the producer ________.

• A. pays a reinstatement fee
• B. completes continuing education
• C. applies for reinstatement on an original application
• D. receives a written recommendation

Answer: (C)

When a producer voluntarily terminates, the license is canceled and you’re considered out of licensure for the remainder of that period. To get back on the active roster within the same license period, you must go through the licensing process anew by submitting an original license application. This requalification step ensures the regulator rechecks qualifications as if you were applying for the first time under current rules. Paying a reinstatement fee or doing continuing education doesn’t address that requalification requirement, and a written recommendation isn’t a standard criterion for reinstatement.
