Lookup your current and past reported CE completions. All schools have until the 15th of the following month after completion to report CE completions. If it is before that date check back after the 15th. If it is after the 15th, contact the school. Once you renew, your CE completions automatically go into your history file. Click on “Show History” in the upper right-hand corner of page to see them. NOTE: As of 4/30/2020 Broker Post-License reported completions can be looked up here.

If you HAVE NOT registered on the Portal previously, you need to register first to get access to your account. Below the password box “Click” on “Register”. On the next page scroll down and “Click” on the “Next” button. Note: An individual who already has a real estate license does not need to change anything on this page. On the next page enter in your Social Security # and “Click” the “Finish” button. Note: The SS# is the only field that is required. On the next page you will “Create a Password” and set up secret questions. When complete “Click” the “Create Account” button. At this point you will have access to your personal account with the IDFPR.
After renewing, when the renewal has been processed through the IDFPR’s system and the new license is issued, you will receive an email informing you to get it. The email with an access code on how to retrieve/download/print your license. You can also get your license at any time by entering your License# and Date of Birth or SS#.
