A resident producer from another state in good standing applies for a New Jersey non-resident producer license. Under N.J.S.A. 17:22A-34 and NAIC reciprocity, DOBI will generally:

Issue the non-resident license without additional pre-licensing or testing if the home state grants reciprocity to NJ residents
BRequire the applicant to complete NJ's 20-hour pre-licensing course and pass the NJ exam before issuing any non-resident license
CRequire the applicant to relocate to NJ within 90 days
DIssue only a limited line license

Why this is the answer

N.J.S.A. 17:22A-34 implements the NAIC Producer Licensing Model reciprocity framework. A non-resident applicant who is licensed and in good standing in the home state, whose home state grants reciprocal treatment to NJ residents, receives a NJ non-resident license without additional pre-licensing or testing. The applicant submits a uniform application through NIPR, pays the fee, and lists the lines of authority held in the home state. The applicant is not required to relocate or limit authority.
