    The Bureau's own lines of authority page says "No exam required" against this license and asks for no course either. Virginia's only pre-licensing course is the Title qualification's sixteen hours. The application processing fee is $500, which is the joint highest in Virginia with the two reinsurance intermediary licenses and thirty-three times the $15 an ordinary qualification costs. The five percent threshold is the Bureau's own and it is measured against the last annual statement.
