Thanks! I know in someplaces if you have your brokers license, they just make you do whatever updates and tests/fees so that you wouldn't have to take a step down to saleperson. I found that info as well and I put in a call to them last week but never heard anything back.

Thanks again!

Hello Amanda,

Call them again, and again until you get through and get your answer. Call backs are rarely done... particular when dealing with a gov't office here. You'll get the information, just need to be persistant.
