How to Renew you MLO License After your Hours are Reported to the NMLS
Once your continuing education hours are successfully reported to the NMLS, renewing your MLO license becomes a straightforward process through the NMLS system. Log into your NMLS account and navigate to the license renewal section, where you’ll find your completed CE requirements automatically reflected in your record. Once you are logged in, hit “COMPOSITE VIEW” in the upper right hand corner of your screen, then hit “VIEW INDIVIDUAL” (top of screen) Next hit educational record (left side of screen) and scroll to the bottom where you will see CE & PE Education listed.
This 11-page NMLS Handbook Downloadable PDF File will provide you with step by step instructions to Renew Your MLO License
Next, you’ll need to pay the required renewal fees, which vary by state, and update any personal or employment information that may have changed during the license period. Most states require renewal by December 31st, though deadlines can vary, so it’s essential to check your specific state requirements and complete the process before your license expires. The NMLS system will guide you through each step, and once approved, your renewed license status will be updated in the database, allowing you to continue originating mortgage loans without interruption.
