According to Missouri Statute section 324.015 RSMo, effective August 2018, the commission will waive occupational licensing fees – upon request – for two years, beginning with the date the request is approved by the Missouri Real Estate Commission. Military families who wish to request this fee waiver must meet the definition of a military family as defined in Missouri Statute section 324.015.1(4): any active member, veterans, and their spouses are considered military families. Surviving spouses are included in the definition of a military family. This fee waiver-request must be made to the relevant licensing authority, in this case, the Missouri Real Estate Commission.
The MREC then has 30 days to render a decision regarding the request. Each veteran or member of a military family may only receive one waiver per licensing authority.
