| Q. |
How long does It take to get a Salesperson license? |
| A. |
Once the fee has been paid by the applicant, a temporary license is issued right away. A permanent license will follow provided you've met all application requirements. The Auto industry Division has 120 days from the date of the temporary license issuance to process and issue the permanent license.
|
| Q. |
Can I sell as soon as I receive my temporary license? |
| A. |
Yes, the temporary license will permit you to sell for 120 days until your permanent license is issued. As soon as a permanent license is issued, your temporary license becomes invalid. If your application is denied, your temporary license will immediately become invalid.
|
| Q. |
I forgot to mention on my license application that I was recently arrested, what should I do? |
| A. |
Excluding traffic violations, you are required to notify the Auto Industry Division immediately and within 30 days after receiving a conviction. A license can be denied for failure to disclose your criminal history and failure to provide court documents. If you accidentally did not disclose this, you should contact the Auto Industry Division right away and provide all related arrest documents. Failure to disclose your criminal history (or recent arrests) is considered a material misstatement in an application for a license (12-6-118 C.R.S.) and could be grounds for denial of a Sales license.
