A North Carolina licensee in 2026 receives notice of a pending administrative action in another state. Is notice of the pending action a reportable material fact, or must the licensee wait for its outcome?

Correct Answer

C) A material fact, and so reportable as a material change of it

Material facts include notice of a pending administrative action involving the licensee or applicant by any state or federal authority to which the licensee is subject, and material change means a change to any material facts. Other choices: the pending action itself is listed; no participation or geographic condition appears. Source: 04 NCAC 03M .0101(7)(a)

Answer Options
A
A material fact where the other state is a NMLS participant
B
Not reportable until the other state concludes the action, since an unresolved proceeding says nothing yet about whether the licensee did anything wrong
C
A material fact, and so reportable as a material change of it
D
Not reportable unless the action concerns North Carolina borrowers

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Material facts include notice of a pending administrative action involving the licensee or applicant by any state or federal authority to which the licensee is subject, and material change means a change to any material facts. Other choices: the pending action itself is listed; no participation or geographic condition appears. Source: 04 NCAC 03M .0101(7)(a)
