Chapter 489 prohibits unlicensed contracting and false or improper representations of licensure.

Answer Options
A
notice to owner permit status record
B
tax exempt sale employment record file
C
lien duration coverage evidence note
D
prohibited representation

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Chapter 489 prohibits unlicensed contracting and false or improper representations of licensure.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option A: notice to owner permit status record

notice to owner permit status record belongs to a different file or record trail; it does not prove the unlicensed activity event.

Option B: tax exempt sale employment record file

tax exempt sale employment record file belongs to a different file or record trail; it does not prove the unlicensed activity event.

Option C: lien duration coverage evidence note

lien duration coverage evidence note belongs to a different file or record trail; it does not prove the unlicensed activity event.

Memory Technique

A record works only when it proves the exact prohibits event for Contractor'S Office.

Reference Hint

Open-book path: tab Florida Statutes Chapter 489 to Section 489.127, Prohibitions and penalties; verify the Florida rule, deadline, or compliance record before answering.
