Online Renewal Required
To keep your license active with the TX-OCCC in 2027, annual renewal must be completed online through NMLS.
Transition applications and annual renewals are separate processes. All licensees must complete their annual renewal during the designated renewal period, including those with transition applications that remain under review.
Do not mail renewal documents, payments, or checks to the TX OCCC nor NMLS. Any mailed submissions will be returned without processing.
Please note: Texas-OCCC staff do not have access to company user accounts within NMLS and are unable to view your account from the user perspective. As a result, Texas OCCC staff cannot provide step-by-step navigation assistance or troubleshoot renewal payment issues within NMLS.
Agency Fee Invoices (AFIs)
Some licensees received an Agency Fee Invoice (AFI) issued by the TX OCCC in NMLS.
Pursuant to Texas Administrative Code §84.611(e)(1)(C), the Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner has assessed an annual volume fee based on the volume of business reported for some licensees. If you have any questions regarding your Annual Report or the reported activity used to calculate this assessment, please contact Exam at the Office of Consumer Credit Commissioner (OCCC) at 512-936-7625
If you received an AFI, review the invoice details in NMLS licensing item and submit payment by the due date shown on the invoice. Outstanding AFIs must be paid in full before a license renewal can be paid.
