David is licensed as a real estate broker in another state and wants to apply for Mississippi licensure using a nonresident or reciprocal pathway. What is the most accurate current-law answer?

Correct Answer

C) David must follow MREC’s current reciprocal/nonresident requirements for his state; requirements vary, and any education or exam exemption depends on the applicable MREC pathway and law

MREC’s nonresident/reciprocal application states that reciprocal requirements vary greatly by state and are not listed on the website; applicants must contact MREC before submitting. Mississippi License Law §73-35-13 also allows examination exemption in whole or in part when statutory reciprocity conditions are met. The safe answer is not “always state exam” or “automatic license”; it is to follow the current MREC pathway for that applicant.

Answer Options
A
David automatically receives a Mississippi broker license solely because he holds an out-of-state broker license
B
David must always pass the Mississippi State Portion because MREC can never waive any exam requirement for a reciprocal applicant
C
David must follow MREC’s current reciprocal/nonresident requirements for his state; requirements vary, and any education or exam exemption depends on the applicable MREC pathway and law
D
David may practice in Mississippi immediately if his home-state broker gives written permission
