Community
Business College has been informed today by the California
Bureau of Real Estate of a change in license application procedures:
All individuals who submit an application for a real
estate license received on or after January 1, 2016 will no longer need to
submit proof of legal presence in the United States.
On September
28, 2014, the Governor signed Senate
Bill 1159 (Lara,
Chapter 752, Statutes of 2014), which adds Section 135.5 to the Business
& Professions Code (BPC), changing the legal presence requirements to
obtain a real estate license.
Up
until SB1159, the law required an individual to provide proof of legal presence
in the United States (either via proof of U.S. citizenship or legal alien
status), in order to obtain a real estate license. The new law which becomes
effective on January 1, 2016, will remove the legal presence requirement from
the entire application process.
This
notification is the California Bureau of Real
Estate’s implementation of the new laws’ requirements.
The
law change follows an earlier state Supreme Court case in which justices ruled
that lawyer
Sergio Garcia should be admitted to the California bar despite lacking legal
status.
Since
California Real Estate
activity is regulated under the Business & Professions Code, the change
affects all applications that are submitted after January 1, 2016.
An
important note: California
Real Estate applicants will still
be required to provide a social security number or an individual taxpayer identification
number for licensure.
