(2) An applicant for a resident adjuster or insurance consultant license who is or has been licensed as a resident producer, adjuster or insurance consultant in another state or a province of Canada within five years prior to the date of application shall include with the application a statement that the resident license is inactive or no longer valid from the insurance department of the state or province in which the applicant is or was last authorized to transact insurance.

(3) An applicant for a non-resident adjuster or insurance consultant license who is licensed as a resident producer, adjuster or insurance consultant in another state or province of Canada shall include with the application a statement of current licensure from the insurance department of the state or province in which the applicant was authorized to transact insurance as a resident licensee. The statement must indicate that the applicant has a current license for the class or classes of insurance that are being applied for in Oregon. The statement must be dated not earlier than the 90th day prior to the date of application. The exemption to the adjuster licensing examination in ORS 744.535(2) applies only to non-resident adjuster licensing.

(4) The Director may collect Social Security numbers submitted in applications under this rule and may use a Social Security number of an individual when authorized to do so for the purposes specified in this section. In addition to the governmental uses for which a Social Security number is required in an application under federal and state law, when authorized by the holder of a Social Security number, the Director may use a Social Security number for any of the following purposes:

(a) As an identification number in maintaining records and reporting grades or examination scores;

(b) For licensing purposes; and

(c) For use by other government agencies to carry out their statutory duties.

(5) An applicant may voluntarily allow the Director to use the Social Security number of the applicant, as the Director may request in the application form, for the purposes specified in section (4) of this rule. Refusal to voluntarily allow such use of the Social Security number will not result in the denial of any individual right, benefit or privilege provided by law. The use authorized by an applicant is in addition to uses authorized by state and federal law for which collection of Social Security numbers is mandatory.
