How do I get a Florida 2-15 insurance license?
To earn Florida's 2-15 Health and Life (including annuities and variable contracts) license, complete 60 hours of approved prelicensing education (including 3 hours of ethics), then pass the state exam, which requires a 70% score and costs $44 through Pearson VUE. Next, apply with the Department of Financial Services, paying the $50 application fee plus a $5 license identification fee, and submit fingerprints through IdentoGO. A passing score stays valid for 12 months, and military members, veterans, and their spouses are exempt from the prelicensing coursework.
To get the Florida 2-15 resident Health & Life (Including Annuities & Variable Contracts) agent license, complete a 60-hour department-approved life and health course within four years of applying, then pass the state examination administered by Pearson VUE. Submit the application online through MyProfile with the $50 application fee and $5 License ID fee, complete fingerprinting through the state's vendor ($52.50 plus local county sales tax), and be appointed by an insurer, since the license requires an appointment to be valid.
