§ 2742¶
Certificate of Status, Qualification or Good Standing.
(a) An applicant for an original broker license for a domestic corporation shall submit with the application, a Certificate of Status (Domestic Corporation) executed by the California Secretary of State not earlier than 30 days before the date of mailing or delivering the application to the headquarters office of the Bureau. However, if the applicant is a domestic corporation which filed its original Articles of Incorporation not earlier than six (6) months before the date of mailing or delivering the application to the headquarters office of the Bureau, Articles of Incorporation executed by the California Secretary of State may be submitted instead of a Certificate of Status.
(b) An applicant for an original broker license for a foreign corporation shall submit with the application, a Certificate of Qualification or a Certificate of Good Standing (Foreign Corporation) executed by the California Secretary of State not earlier than 30 days before the date of mailing or delivering the application to the headquarters office of the Bureau.
(c) A corporation licensed under Section 10211 of the Code shall not engage in the business of a real estate broker while not in good legal standing with the Office of the Secretary of State.

Amendment of subsection (a) filed 11-13-96; operative 11-13-96 pursuant to Government Code section 11343.4(d) (Register 96, No. 46).
Change without regulatory effect amending section filed 6-30-2014 pursuant to section 100, title 1, California Code of Regulations (Register 2014, No. 27).
Applicability basis: 1 CCR § 100 provides that an agency may add to, revise or delete text published in the California Code of Regulations without complying with the rulemaking procedure specified in article 5 of the APA only if the change does not materially alter any requirement, right, responsibility, condition, prescription or other regulatory element of any California Code of Regulations provision.
Version dates (indexing metadata): Effective 1996-11-13.
Date derivation (indexing metadata): This is the current publisher text. The filing history states: "3. Amendment of subsection (a) filed 11-13-96; operative 11-13-96 pursuant to Government Code section 11343.4(d) (Register 96, No. 46)." The later entry is: "4. Change without regulatory effect amending section filed 6-30-2014 pursuant to section 100, title 1, California Code of Regulations (Register 2014, No. 27).". Under 1 CCR § 100, a change without regulatory effect cannot materially alter a regulatory element. The indexing start is therefore the last substantive operative date, 1996-11-13. No earlier version is represented.
