Supporting Documentation Requirements
- Do not submit an application unless all required supporting documentation is ready to be provided.
- If an applicant responds “yes” to any background question or is otherwise required to submit additional documentation, those documents must be submitted as part of the application process.

Supporting documentation should be uploaded electronically via NIPR’s Attachment Warehouse. Because access to the Attachment Warehouse is only available after an application is submitted, applicants should be prepared to upload all required documentation immediately upon submission. - Alternate Submission Methods

- Documentation must include the application transaction number and applicant’s name
- Documentation submitted by mail must be postmarked within 24 hours of application submission
- Important: Applications submitted without complete supporting documentation may be closed as incomplete without further notice and may require reapplication.
- All required documentation must be received within thirty (30) days of application submission, or the application will be declined.
Upon license issuance and renewal, all Claims Adjusters licensed in Louisiana are required to read and acknowledge the claims adjuster standards of conduct provided in La.
