Debt Adjuster Licensing
In response to the outbreak of the coronavirus, the Banking Commissioner issued a memo on March 10, 2020 advising the mortgage industry, and other financial services sectors licensed by the Department, that it would take a no action position with regard to employees working from home who otherwise would be required to work from a licensed branch location. Please read the memo for details:

Notice to all Debt Adjusters:
How to Apply:
If you wish to apply for a debt adjuster license you should begin by first reviewing Connecticut’s Jurisdiction-Specific Requirements along with Connecticut's debt adjuster licensing statutes, which provides the current licensing procedures and requirements applicable to debt adjusters.
If your company already has a completed record in the Nationwide Multistate Licensing System and Registry, then applying for a license in Connecticut merely involves filing your company's record (Form MU1), control person records (Form MU2), and relevant branch records (Form MU3) with Connecticut through the NMLS and mailing in the jurisdiction-specific requirements to the Department.
Go to the Getting Started page of the NMLS website and follow the steps outlined:
