For a broker to terminate a licensee, which task is NOT required?

To terminate a licensee, it is not required for a broker to complete a termination request form. This task may be beneficial for record-keeping or internal processes, but it is not mandated by regulatory requirements.

The other tasks outlined are essential for the termination process. Returning the original license to the licensee ensures they no longer have claims to an active status, while signing the license with the date of termination signals to the regulatory body that the broker formally ended the relationship. Mailing a copy of the license to the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation (IDFPR) is critical for compliance, as it officially informs the agency of the termination of the license status.

Thus, while some additional paperwork might streamline the process or clarify circumstances for both parties, the completion of a termination request form itself is not a requirement established by the regulatory guidelines.
