When must a renewal notice be mailed by the Commission in relation to the license expiration date?

1. 2 months

2. 3 months

3. 6 months

4. 1 month

The correct answer is: 3 months

The correct answer is that a renewal notice must be mailed by the Commission three months before the expiration date of the license. This timeline is designed to ensure that contractors receive ample advance notice to prepare and submit their renewal applications, preventing any gaps in licensure that could impact their ability to operate legally. Receiving the renewal notice three months prior to expiration allows contractors to address any potential issues related to their renewal in a timely manner, such as gathering required documentation or completing necessary continuing education. This proactive approach supports regulatory compliance and helps maintain professional standards within the contracting industry.
