Section 628.06 - Licensing of fraternal agents(1) GENERAL PROVISION. Subject to sub. (2), an agent of a fraternal is subject to the same licensing requirements as an agent for any other insurer doing the same lines of business, unless the agent was an agent for a fraternal immediately prior to October 2, 1963, and is still such an agent on June 19, 1976. The agent's authority under this exception ceases upon ceasing, for however short a period, to be an agent for a fraternal.(2) PART-TIME FRATERNAL AGENTS. An agent for one or more fraternals who devotes or intends to devote less than half-time to the solicitation of insurance business is not subject to the requirements of sub. (1). A person is presumed to have devoted half-time to the solicitation of insurance business if in the preceding calendar year the person procured life insurance contracts in a face amount in excess of $50,000, or, in the case of other kinds of insurance, on the persons of more than 25 individuals, and if the person received compensation therefor.
