Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why A is correct
Under A.R.S. 20-285, a producer may renew late within one year after expiration upon paying the late fee. The late renewal does not require an examination or a retroactive continuing education repair — the price of the lapse is the fee, not a return to the testing center.
Why the other options are wrong
- B) Wrong because late renewal within the one-year window under A.R.S. 20-285 requires no examination and no retroactive CE fix; only the late fee is added.
- C) Wrong because late renewal is expressly permitted within one year after expiration; starting over as a new applicant applies only after that window closes.
- D) Wrong because the late-renewal path of A.R.S. 20-285 is available to any lapsed licensee within the year; military inactive status is a separate provision.
Memory hook
One year of grace after expiry — late fee, no exam.
