If you should change your residence while registered with the department, when do you have to give notification to the department and how?

• A. Within 10 days
• B. Within 30 days
• C. Within 60 days
• D. Within 5 days

Answer: (A)

Keeping licensing records up to date is essential so the department can reach you for renewals, notices, and any important communications. When you change your residence, you must notify the department within 10 days. You would do this in writing, typically through the department’s change-of-address process—either online through the licensing portal or by submitting a form—and you should include your full name, license type or number, your old address, and your new address. This prompt update helps prevent missed mail and ensures your license remains in good standing. Longer windows, like 30, 60 days or as short as 5 days, can delay critical notices and create gaps in your records.
