Adjuster Licensing & Renewal State Law Changes

State law changes over the previous year affecting claims adjuster licensing and renewal are listed here, the latest changes are listed first.

Please understand that the effective date of a legislative change does not always mean the corresponding adjuster state licensing exam will be immediately updated to reflect that change. We monitor the legislative changes and include the new changes while pointing out that the student may still see the old information as the correct answer on the adjuster state licensing exam.

The list below currently applies only to the states for which we provide prelicensing or exam prep courses.
