When can an adjuster whose license has expired reapply for a continuance of the license?

When an adjuster's license has expired, the ability to reapply for a continuance is allowed within 12 months of the renewal date. This timeframe provides a reasonable period for the adjuster to renew their license and maintain their professional standing without starting the process from scratch.

A longer window allows adjusters who may face unforeseen circumstances or delays in completing their continuing education requirements the opportunity to reestablish their license. It’s also important for adjusters to keep up with their professional development, which can often lead to lapses in licensure if overlooked.

This grace period acknowledges the reality that professionals may not be able to renew precisely on schedule while still protecting the integrity of the licensure process and ensuring that adjusters are kept informed of any changes in regulations or practices that may have occurred since their license lapsed.
