Tom holds an active Idaho salesperson license affiliated with Brokerage A. He decides to leave Brokerage A and join Brokerage B. Under Idaho law, which of the following correctly describes the steps Tom must take to transfer his license to Brokerage B?

Correct Answer

D) Tom's license must be released by the designated broker at Brokerage A and then affiliated with the designated broker at Brokerage B through IREC before he may practice at Brokerage B.

Under Idaho Code § 54-2034, a salesperson's license is held under the supervision of a designated broker. To transfer, the salesperson's license must be formally released by the current designated broker and re-affiliated with the new designated broker through IREC. Tom may not practice at Brokerage B until this process is complete and his license is officially affiliated with Brokerage B's designated broker.

Answer Options
A
Tom may begin working at Brokerage B immediately upon giving verbal notice to Brokerage A, as long as the formal transfer paperwork is submitted within 30 days.
B
Tom must obtain written consent from his former designated broker at Brokerage A before IREC will process the transfer to Brokerage B.
C
Tom must notify IREC in writing within 10 days of his departure from Brokerage A, after which his license automatically transfers to Brokerage B.
D
Tom's license must be released by the designated broker at Brokerage A and then affiliated with the designated broker at Brokerage B through IREC before he may practice at Brokerage B.
