About the New Mexico Life & Health exam

The Life & Health exam licenses you to sell life insurance, annuities, and accident and health coverage. Every state writes its own version, and each one tests both general insurance knowledge and that state's insurance law.

What it covers

  • Life insurance policy types, provisions and riders
  • Annuities and how they are taxed
  • Accident and health insurance, including HMOs and managed care
  • Your state's producer licensing, marketing and unfair trade practice rules

Who takes it

New agents and career changers getting a first producer license, and agents adding life and health to an existing license.

Frequently asked questions

New Mexico publishes 150 scored questions, with 2 hours 30 minutes to finish. Exams also include a few unscored pretest questions.

New Mexico gives Life & Health as one combined exam.

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

New Mexico 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 $75, paid when you register; the exact amount depends on which exam you take. The New Mexico Department of Insurance lists $30 for the license itself, which depends on the license type. Fees can change, so confirm them when you book.

Life: not required; Accident & Health: not required. Confirm the current rule with the New Mexico Department of Insurance before you register, because requirements change.

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

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

Yes. Each state writes its own version, combining general life & health knowledge with New Mexico insurance law.
