Haw. Code R. § 16-99-19.2 - Experience certificate application
(a) Candidates for
the broker examination shall submit to the commission a completed experience
certificate application together with:
(1) A
nonrefundable application fee; and
(2) A certified statement by the principal
broker or a broker in charge of each of applicant's brokerage firms during the
three years immediately preceding the application for experience certificate,
that attests to the length of time that the applicant has been actively
associated or employed full-time with the brokerage firm.
Applicants shall have experience in this State as a full-time Hawaii-licensed real estate salesperson, associated as an employee or independent contractor with an active Hawaii-licensed brokerage firm, for at least three years within the five-year period immediately prior to the application for experience certificate.
(b) "Full-time" means averaging at least
forty hours a week devoted to real estate salesperson activity. No pro rata
credit shall be given to part-time real estate salesperson activity.
(c) The commission shall verify the
applicant's dates of employment or association with each brokerage firm, and
dates of release from the firm's employment or association, on the experience
certification statements with the records of the commission. An applicant shall
not receive credit for any experience for periods during which the applicant's
license was inactive, forfeited, suspended, revoked, or terminated.
(d) The commission may grant an equivalency
for the experience requirement based on real estate license experience in
another state with similar education requirements; provided that an
out-of-state applicant shall have experience as a full-time licensed real
estate salesperson with an active out-of-state brokerage firm, for at least
three years within the five-year period immediately prior to the application
for experience certificate; or possess a current, unencumbered out-of-state
real estate broker's license. All requests for equivalency to the experience
requirement shall be submitted in writing together with all required documents
of an official nature with the experience certification application.
(e) The commission may reject an application
for experience certificate if the application is incomplete or if the
applicant's real estate salesperson license is in forfeited, suspended,
revoked, or terminated status.
(f)
If the applicant has satisfied the three-year full-time experience requirement,
the commission shall issue to the applicant an experience certificate that
shall be valid for two years from the date of issuance. The experience
certificate shall be produced at the applicant's examination appointment and
submitted with the applicant's application for individual broker license.
