When must a change in sponsorship be reported to the Commission?

A change in sponsorship must be reported to the Commission immediately to ensure compliance with regulatory requirements. This prompt reporting allows for the timely updating of records and maintaining accurate information regarding a licensee's qualifications and affiliations. The immediacy is critical because a delay could result in legal implications for both the inspector and their former or new sponsors.

In the realm of home inspections, maintaining clear and current sponsorship records is crucial for accountability and for fostering trust in the industry. If changes are not reported immediately, it may lead to confusion in responsibility for inspections performed during the transition period or issues with the inspector's license status.

Other options, while they may suggest ways to handle reporting or communication, do not reflect the urgency and requirement outlined in the regulations. Reporting at a later time, such as during regular meetings or only upon request, would not satisfy the immediacy needed in keeping the Commission informed of any changes.
