Why would my NY property/casualty agents license show me as inactive even though it doesn't expire for a year?

Question

On the NY insurance website under the producer self service area it lists my license status as inactive. I am up on all my CE and my license doesn't expire until next year?

Answer 1

Because you no longer work for your sponsoring company - the sponsoring company notified the insurance department that you are no longer sponsored.  

You need to pick up another sponsor, to reactiveate your license.

Answer 2

If you weren't up on your CE it would probably say "non-compliant" instead of "inactive".

Are you working, or are you not currently affiliated with an insurer in your state?  You have to have a current affiliation in order to keep your license active.

If you call the department of insurance they will t ell you for sure, but this would be one possibility.
