An ordinary New Mexico broker-dealer agent files Form U4 through CRD and pays $50 initially and at annual renewal. The ordinary qualification route is Series 63 or Series 66 plus an activity-appropriate securities examination such as Series 6 or Series 7, with the state’s two-year validity and recent-registration treatment. Registration renews through CRD by December 31 and must be effective before activity begins.
