§ 41-1028 — INACTIVE STATUS

(1) Any individual producer who does not want to actively continue in the business of insurance may apply for inactive status of his license on forms prescribed by the director. The director, in his discretion, may grant or deny the application for inactive status and shall notify the licensee of this decision in writing. Inactive status of a license, once granted, shall apply to all licenses held by the licensee and shall continue in force until reactivated pursuant to this section or until the license is suspended or revoked pursuant to this chapter.
(2) During the period that a licensee remains on inactive status, the licensee may not transact the business of insurance in this state or engage in any other insurance activity which requires an active license. A licensee on inactive status may, subject to the terms of an insurer’s contract with the licensee, continue to receive commissions or other compensation relative to business written by such licensee during active license status.
(3) Any individual producer whose license is placed on inactive status shall be exempt from compliance with continuing education requirements.
(4) An individual producer whose license is placed on inactive status shall be subject to payment of the applicable continuation fees.
(5) An individual producer whose license is on inactive status may apply for reactivation of a license on forms prescribed by the director. The request for reactivation shall include proof of completion of twenty (20) hours of continuing education earned during the twelve (12) months prior to reactivation or proof that the producer has retested and met the examination requirements as to any line or kind of insurance to be transacted under the reactivated license. The director, in his discretion, may grant or deny the application for reactivation.
