Questions about this bond
Does Level 1 allow more trades than Level 2?
The chart says both levels perform the same one-or-two-trade commercial work. Their experience and security requirements differ.
Must one owner alone have all eight years?
The chart allows combined qualifying experience from one or more key employees, with stated experience/substitution rules. Have CCB confirm your qualification.
Is the bond effective for licensing as soon as purchased?
No. The form requires filing within 60 days and says it is not valid until filed and licensing completed. It is a continuing obligation, not a quoted purchase term.
