Re: Renewing Your HAM License


 

Greetings Lisa,

I won't have access to renew my license until mid-August so I can't advise on the online system.?

You can use any of the 3 paper methods...

1) Download a 605 (), fill it out, sign it, scan it, and email the completed and signed 605 to the VEC (vec@...) and they will process it for you.
2) Hand a completed and signed 605 to an Exam session coordinator (me or Jim) and they will process it for you.
3) Show up at an exam session (next session is the 18th), fill out the 605, hand it to the examiners, and they will process it for you.?

After it is processed by the FCC they will send you an email with a link to make the $35?payment.?

73,

Simple question - has anyone attempted to renew their HAM license lately?
This was the most convoluted process I have ever seen!!? So I do manage to answer all the questions correctly and make the additions they require and now I have to pay the $35 fee.? Okay fair enough so now I'm transfered to CORES!? Is the FCC and FEDS kidding?? I have to now create a NEW account for CORES.?? So I make up a 14 digit password and I think I'm logged in yet it doesn't know anything about my transaction.? What gives?? Anybody got an easy way to renew their license like sending in some kind? of application and a check via USPS?
