A salesperson originally licensed in another state obtains a Georgia real estate license through the reciprocal application process. Which statement correctly describes this licensee's ongoing obligations?

Correct Answer

D) The licensee must comply with Georgia's postlicense education and renewal requirements, regardless of what was required by the former licensing state.

Under GREC rules, once a reciprocal applicant becomes a Georgia licensee, all Georgia postlicense education and renewal requirements apply. Georgia licensure carries its own independent obligations, including the 25-hour postlicense course for salespersons within the first renewal period and ongoing continuing education for renewal. The original state's education framework does not substitute for Georgia's requirements. (Source: GREC Reciprocal Application guidelines; O.C.G.A. § 43-40-8; GREC licensure and renewal rules.)

Answer Options
A
The licensee's postlicense and continuing education obligations remain governed exclusively by the original licensing state's requirements.
B
Reciprocal licensees are exempt from Georgia's postlicense education requirement as long as they completed equivalent coursework in their home state.
C
The licensee may choose to satisfy either Georgia's or the original state's renewal requirements for the first renewal cycle.
D
The licensee must comply with Georgia's postlicense education and renewal requirements, regardless of what was required by the former licensing state.
