What action is required to obtain a new General class license after a previously held license has expired and the two-year grace period has passed?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: D. The applicant must show proof of the appropriate expired license grant and pass the current Element 2 exam
After the 2-year grace period, you can show proof of the old license grant and pass the current Element 2 (Technician) exam. You then get credit for the higher elements you previously passed.
Tip: Expired past grace? Proof plus Element 2.
