Questions about John's license

Is John Shanks a licensed insurance agent in Texas?

Public licensing records list license 709799 with a status of "Active", first issued in 1980, expiring February 28, 2027. We last checked the record against public licensing records on November 1, 2026. A license means the state allows the agent to sell insurance; it is not an endorsement.

How do I verify this license myself?

Search the state's insurance agent lookup by name or license number 709799, or look up National Producer Number 1118927 on the NIPR website. Both are free and show the current status.

What does a carrier appointment mean?

An appointment is the insurance carrier's authorization for the agent to sell its products in Texas. Records show 23 appointments for John. It does not tell you which plans the agent will recommend, and it is not a rating.

Does it cost anything to contact John?

No. Licensed agents are paid by the insurance carrier when you enroll, and your premium is the same whether you use an agent or not. MeetBrokers does not charge you either.

What does "unclaimed profile" mean?

This page was built from public licensing records. John Shanks has not reviewed it, and MeetBrokers has not spoken with them. Messages you send through the form are held until the agent verifies their identity. The agent can claim the page or ask us to remove it at any time.
