Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why A is correct
Under Chapter 626, Florida Statutes, appointments are recorded with the Department of Financial Services, which maintains licensing and appointment records for licensees. DFS records are the authoritative source for verifying whether an agent is licensed and which insurers currently maintain appointments for that agent.
Why the other options are wrong
- B) The guaranty association handles insolvency coverage of member insurers, not appointment records.
- C) OIR's rate filings concern insurer pricing, not agent appointment records.
- D) Continuing education transcripts show compliance hours, not appointing insurers.
Memory hook
Appointment questions go to DFS records.
