Patricia holds a Michigan real estate salesperson license that expired 8 months ago. She did not complete her continuing education before the expiration date. She now wants to resume practicing real estate. Under Michigan law, which of the following best describes the steps she must take?

Correct Answer

A) She must complete all required CE hours, submit a reinstatement application to LARA-BPL, and pay both the renewal fee and a late penalty fee

Under the Michigan Occupational Code (MCL 339.411 and MCL 339.2517), a licensee whose license has expired may apply for reinstatement by completing all outstanding CE requirements and submitting a reinstatement application to LARA-BPL with the applicable renewal fee plus a late penalty fee. Michigan does not require a returning licensee to retake the state exam solely because the license has been expired for 8 months, provided the license has not been revoked or the lapse has not exceeded the statutory maximum period for reinstatement without re-examination. Patricia must satisfy the CE requirement and pay the required fees to reinstate.

Answer Options
A
She must complete all required CE hours, submit a reinstatement application to LARA-BPL, and pay both the renewal fee and a late penalty fee
B
She must retake the Michigan state licensing examination and submit a new license application because her license has been expired for more than 6 months
C
She must complete all required CE hours and submit a new license application as a first-time applicant, including a new background check and application fee
D
She must petition the Michigan Real Estate Commission for reinstatement and appear at a formal hearing before her license can be restored
