Before you can start the Georgia adjuster application process, you must complete a 40-hour pre-licensing course. There is a link to pre-licensing providers in the Resources section. The only way the pre-licensing process can be waived is if you have a CPCU (chartered property casualty underwriter) designation or if you were previously licensed in the state from which you are moving or, if you are a non-resident of Georgia, the state in which you currently reside.

Tips & Warnings
If you are applying as a non-resident from a state that doesn't require insurance adjuster licenses, you'll have to take the Georgia Adjuster Examination.
Your home state license must be active within 90 days of application.
If you are moving to Georgia and applying for a Georgia resident adjuster license and are relying on your former state's adjuster license to skip the exam, you must apply within 90 days of moving.
