Answer & full 3-part explanation (select an option above, or peek)
Why A is correct
Under Georgia Insurance Department licensing procedures, fingerprinting is required of new resident applicants so background checks can be run before the initial license is issued. Quick reinstatements — within six months of expiration — are among the exceptions, and routine renewals and nonresident maintenance do not trigger a new fingerprint submission.
Why the other options are wrong
- B) Maintaining an existing Georgia nonresident license does not require a new fingerprint submission.
- C) Reinstatement within six months of expiration is expressly among the fingerprinting exceptions.
- D) A timely renewal of an unexpired license does not require fingerprinting.
Memory hook
New residents print; quick reinstatements skip it.
