For how long is the sponsor card valid?

The validity period of a sponsor card is set at 45 days. This means that once it's issued, the individual has 45 days to complete necessary actions, such as fulfilling any licensing requirements or completing transactions related to the card. This time frame ensures that sponsors and agents have a clear, short-term deadline to operate under the authority granted by the card, reflecting the nature of the real estate market where timely actions are crucial.

A sponsor card being valid for 30 days would be too short for practical use in residential leasing activities. Conversely, durations of 60 or 90 days would extend the validity period beyond what regulatory standards have typically established, potentially complicating oversight and management of sponsorships in the industry.
