About the New Jersey Personal Lines exam

Personal Lines is a narrower license for selling coverage to individuals and families: personal auto, homeowners and umbrella liability. Not every state offers it as a separate exam, so the states below are the ones we cover.

What it covers

  • Homeowners and residential property coverage
  • Personal auto and umbrella liability
  • Cancellation, nonrenewal and notice rules
  • Your state's personal lines regulations

Who takes it

Agents who sell only to individuals and households, such as captive agents at personal lines carriers.

Frequently asked questions

New Jersey's published content outline lists 112 scored questions. Exams also include a few unscored pretest questions.

The passing score is set by New Jersey. Most states use 70%, but check the New Jersey candidate handbook from the testing vendor for the exact figure.

New Jersey uses PSI, an independent testing company that schedules and runs licensing exams. Its candidate handbook explains how to register and what to bring.

The testing company lists an exam fee of $38, paid when you register; the exact amount depends on which exam you take. The New Jersey Department of Insurance lists $150 for the license itself, which depends on the license type. Fees can change, so confirm them when you book.

Property & Casualty: required, 20 hours each for Property and Casualty (40 hours combined). Confirm the current rule with the New Jersey Department of Insurance before you register, because requirements change.

Retake rules come from New Jersey and its testing vendor: you pay the fee again and, in some cases, wait a set number of days. Check the New Jersey candidate handbook from the testing vendor for the exact figure.

Passing is one step. You then apply for the license through the New Jersey Department of Insurance, usually with a background check and a fee.

Yes. Each state writes its own version, combining general personal lines knowledge with New Jersey insurance law.
