Check your company’s license statuses in NMLS to confirm eligibility for renewal and identify any issues that may block renewal.

About this task

Only licenses in certain statuses are considered renewable in NMLS. Reviewing your company’s licenses before November 1 helps confirm they are in an eligible status and prevents delays once the renewal period begins.

Procedure

Navigate to the NMLS Login page (State Context).
Log in to your NMLS account.
Select View Complete Record Information in the Quick Links section.
The Composite View Tab in NMLS Classic is displayed.
Select View Company from the submenu.
Click View License/Registration List from the left navigation panel.
Review the status of each license or registration held by your company.

Note: For a list of statuses that are considered renewable, see Renewable License Statuses.

Note: If your license is not in a renewal-eligible status and you believe it should be, contact your state regulator for guidance.
