CHAPTER 20
IDAHO REAL ESTATE LICENSE LAW
54-2015. Individuals actively licensed in another state or jurisdiction seeking primary Idaho licensure. (1) An individual who is currently and actively licensed as a real estate broker or salesperson in another state or jurisdiction at the time of application for a primary Idaho real estate license shall meet all qualifications listed in section 54-2012, Idaho Code, for the type of license sought, except that the applicant shall not be required to furnish proof of the educational prerequisites described in subsection (1)(h) of section 54-2012, Idaho Code; provided however, an individual applying to be licensed as a designated broker of a business entity or sole proprietorship, or as a branch office manager of a licensed branch office, shall comply with the requirements of section 54-2016, Idaho Code. In addition, such applicant shall provide a current, certified license history from the other licensing state or jurisdiction, which history shall indicate any disciplinary action taken against the applicant’s license by the other licensing state or jurisdiction, and the status and standing of the applicant’s license in the other state or jurisdiction.
(2) An individual who holds an active license in good standing in another state or jurisdiction may, upon written request to the commission, obtain a certificate of waiver of the national portion of the exam required for Idaho licensure. A request for waiver shall indicate the individual’s mailing address to which the commission is to deliver the certificate of waiver. The certificate of waiver shall be submitted with the application for exam as provided in subsection (3) of section 54-2014, Idaho Code.
(3) An individual who is currently and actively licensed in another state or jurisdiction that administers a real estate exam may be issued a primary Idaho license without further exam or proof of educational prerequisites pursuant to written agreement between Idaho and the other state or jurisdiction, provided that such other state or jurisdiction allows the issuance of real estate licenses in substantially the same manner as set forth in this subsection; provided however, an individual applying to be licensed as a designated broker of a business entity or sole proprietorship, or as a branch office manager of a licensed branch office, shall comply with the requirements of section 54-2016, Idaho Code, notwithstanding the terms of the agreement.
