New Hampshire no longer requires any adjuster with a state to state residence change to complete a new application and submit the amendment fee of $50. Effective January 1, 2012, a paper address change form and a $10 address change fee are still required. The form can be found on the Department’s website on the ‘PRODUCER/ADJUSTER’ page.
State to State changes are not allowed through the online address change options with NIPR or SBS. In addition, licensed nonresident adjusters changing residence to New Hampshire are required to pass the state laws and regulations portion of the adjuster exam and relinquish their “resident license” in their former state. A Clearance letter is not required if license information can be verified on the national database. Address changes within the same state can be processed through NIPR at www.nipr.com or SBS www.statebasedsystems.com.
New Hampshire began accepting the “designated home state” for adjusters that live in states without a resident adjuster license effective January 1, 2011. The address change form can also be used to select a designated home state or licensees may email the request to producerquestions@ins.nh.gov. There is no fee to designate a home state.
The Department is eliminating paper renewal notices. Licensees will be required to keep the Department informed of their current business email address. Licensees are responsible for renewing the license even if the renewal notice is not received. Individuals and Business entities can update the information by using the State Based Systems, www.statebasedsystems.com or the direct links listed on the Department’s website.
