A New York candidate fails the test on April 2, 2026, and wants to sit again on April 20. Does the proposed retest date meet the minimum waiting period?

Correct Answer

B) Too soon: each consecutive taking must be 30 days after the last

An individual may retake a test three consecutive times, with each consecutive taking occurring at least thirty days after the preceding test. Other choices: the article limits both the count and the interval; the interval is 30 days rather than 60; and a fee does not shorten it. Source: N.Y. Banking Law § 599-g(4)(b)

B
