What happens to an insurance license if the licensee moves to a state that suspends their license?

When an insurance licensee moves to another state that suspends their license, it is important to recognize that the regulatory framework governing insurance licenses allows for states to share information and cooperate in enforcement. If a license is suspended in one state, it often leads to reciprocal actions in others.

In this case, if Idaho is made aware of the suspension from the new state of residence, it could initiate actions against the license held in Idaho, resulting in its suspension as well. This is because states have the authority to suspend or revoke licenses based on violations that occur in another jurisdiction. Therefore, the status of an insurance license is closely tied to the licensee's overall compliance with licensing regulations across states. When a license is suspended elsewhere, it can prompt similar actions in the licensee's home state, affecting the standing of the license in Idaho as well.
