1. (a) When a salesperson whose license status is active enters the sponsorship of a broker, the salesperson and broker whose sponsorship the salesperson has entered shall notify the commission within 10 days, submit the appropriate fee, and request issuance of a new license reflecting the new association. The salesperson may act as the broker's salesperson from the date the notice and fee are mailed or delivered to the commission.
2. (b) When a salesperson whose license status is inactive enters the sponsorship of a broker and the salesperson is subject to mandatory continuing education (MCE) requirements, the salesperson is not returned to active status until MCE requirements are satisfied and the commission has received documentation of course completion in a form satisfactory to the commission. A salesperson whose original application or renewal application was subject to educational requirements imposed by the Real Estate License Act (Act) §7, is not subject to MCE requirements as a condition of returning to active status during the term of the license issued from the original application or renewal application.
