Oregon places Life on its producer license. An ordinary first-time resident applicant completes 20 hours of prelicense training for the Life authority, passes standalone PSI Life exam 12-01, submits fingerprints and the criminal-records request, and applies electronically. Combined Life and Health exam 12-03 is an alternative. The published initial application fee is $75 plus processing, and the fingerprint/background charge is $61.25. Timely renewal is $45 plus processing and late renewal is $90 plus processing. Resident producers complete 24 continuing-education hours per biennium, including at least 3 ethics hours and 3 Oregon-law hours. Conditional education or examination relief applies only where the regulator’s CLU or same-authority mover conditions are met.
