The deadline to complete CE is December 31. However, MLOs in Florida are prohibited from applying to renew their license if they have not completed CE. MLOs are strongly encouraged not to wait until the last minute to try to complete CE or they may be prevented from submitting for renewal on time.

  1. Log in to NMLS and make sure your record is up to date
  2. Receive a request to renew or reactivate your registration
