Q2 • FL State Regulationsmedium

Agent Walsh receives her Florida 2-15 license on April 1. An insurer submits her appointment paperwork on April 3, but the appointment is not processed and effective until April 15. Agent Walsh writes a life policy for a client on April 10. Which is accurate?

ANo violation — the license is sufficient authority; appointment is a formality with no legal effect date
BWalsh committed an unlicensed-activity violation; acting before appointment is effective violates §626.112
CWalsh is protected by a 30-day provisional appointment grace period that runs from the date paperwork is submitted
DOnly the appointing insurer faces a fine; the agent bears no personal responsibility for premature activity
Why

§626.112 requires both a valid license and an effective appointment before an agent may transact insurance; acting before the appointment is processed is a violation.

Q3 • FL State Regulationsmedium

An agent licensed under a Florida 2-40 license wants to sell a whole life policy to a client. What must the agent do first?

AObtain an appointment from a life insurer and proceed immediately
BObtain a 2-18 or 2-15 license that includes life insurance authority
CNothing — a 2-40 license already covers all personal lines insurance
DFile a written request with the insurer for a temporary life license
Why

A 2-40 is a health-only license; the agent must obtain a license with life authority, such as a 2-18 or 2-15, to sell life insurance.

Q4 • Application, Underwriting, Deliveryeasy

An insurer receives a life insurance application but changes the coverage amount before issuing the policy. What is the legal effect of this change?

AThe original application becomes a binding contract because the insurer accepted it
BThe insurer must return the application and reject coverage entirely
CThe insurer's modified policy is a counter-offer that the applicant may accept or reject
DThe change is automatically binding on the applicant because the insurer approved coverage
Why

When an insurer issues a policy that differs from the application, the policy is a counter-offer the applicant must accept before a contract exists.

Q5 • FL State Regulationshard

The Florida Department of Financial Services sends a licensed agent a written inquiry regarding a consumer complaint. The agent does not respond. Under Florida's agent responsibility rules, the failure to reply to DFS may constitute grounds for which action?

ANo action — DFS cannot sanction an agent for failing to respond to a non-mandatory inquiry
BA civil lawsuit filed by the consumer in circuit court
COnly a written warning letter, as a first-time failure to respond is not a sanctionable offense
DGrounds for discretionary or compulsory suspension or revocation of the agent's license
Why

Failing to respond to a DFS inquiry is a basis for discretionary or compulsory suspension or revocation of a Florida agent's license.
