Residential building contractors whose gross annual receipts from their residential activities are less than $15,000 and have a Certificate of Exemption. Gross annual receipts are the total amount derived from residential contracting or remodeling activities, regardless of where the activities are performed, and must not be reduced by cost of goods sold, expenses, losses or any other amount.
A contractor who provides services in more than one special skill area must be licensed. Specialty contractors who provide only one special skill are not required to have a state license (except residential roofers).
Effective July 1, 2023, companies that contract with residential homeowners to install solar photovoltaic (PV) systems on homes in Minnesota must be licensed as a residential building contractor or remodeler. This license requirement allows homeowners to make claims to the Contractor Recovery Fund in the event a solar company goes out of business, bankrupt or is otherwise unable to complete a solar PV installation project, resulting in an out-of-pocket loss to the homeowner.
The actual installation of the solar PV system must be performed by a Minnesota-licensed electrical contractor. This change does not impact Minnesota-licensed electrical contractors that are subcontracted by licensed residential building contractors and remodelers to perform the installation of solar PV systems on residential structures.
Business must be properly filed with the Minnesota Secretary of State. A Secretary of State business filing is required for all business structures except an individual proprietorship or partnership in which the full legal name(s) of the individual(s) operating the proprietorship or partnership are included in the business name
FORT HOOD, Texas (June 24, 2021) -- Contracting Soldiers from across the Mission and Installation Contracting Command and their Air Force counterparts are working together and building professional relationships using exercise scenarios to conduct theater support contracting and contingency contracting administrative services in a joint environment during virtual 2021 Joint Forces Contracting Exercise or JFCE-21 June 21-25 at Fort Hood, Texas.
Operating as contracting detachments, or CONDET, Soldiers and Airmen worked through exercise scenarios to learn how they execute together in creating a joint contracting force capable of delivering contracting support and contingency contracting effects during large scale combat operations in a multi-domain environment to a unit deployed top deter aggression against U.S. interests in key areas.
One impact the exercise has had on Air Force participants have mentioned has been exposure to the Logistics Civil Augmentation Program, which is a contracting tool the Army uses to provide contingency support to augment the its force structure.
Air Force Master Sgt. Jan Riemenschneider, a white cell team member for the exercise and a contracting officer from Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, said some have never used LOGCAP as the Defense Contracting Management Agency usually handles that part for us. The exercise is a great opportunity to get more exposure to that program.
The training audience and exercise control group members for JFCE-21 consisted of Soldiers and Airmen at Fort Hood, JBSA-Fort Sam Houston, Fort Bragg, North Carolina, Wright-Patterson, Ohio, Shaw AFB, South Carolina, Joint Base Charleston, South Carolina, Seymour Johnson AFB, North Carolina, Scott AFB, Illinois, JBSA-Randolph, Fort Riley, Kansas, JB Lewis-McChord, Washington, Fairchild AFB, Washington, JB Andrews, Maryland, Mountain Home AFB, Idaho, Goodfellow AFB, Texas, Buckley Space Force Base, Colorado, Robins AFB, Georgia, Tinker AFB, Oklahoma, and Eglin AFB, Florida.
Headquartered at Joint Base San Antonio-Fort Sam Houston, Texas, the Mission and Installation Contracting Command consists of about 1,500 military and civilian members who are responsible for contracting goods and services in support of Soldiers as well as readying trained contracting units for the operating force and contingency environment when called upon. As part of its mission, MICC contracts are vital in feeding more than 200,000 Soldiers every day, providing many daily base operations support services at installations, facilitate training in the preparation of more than 100,000 conventional force members annually, training more than 500,000 students each year, and maintaining more than 14.4 million acres of land and 170,000 structures.

In order to become licensed as a Contractor (Class A, Class B, or Class C), applicants must complete eight hours of pre-license education. For Class A and Class B applicants, the pre-license education must be completed by a member of responsible management or the designated employee. For Class C applicants, a member of responsible management must complete the pre-license education. Pre-license education is required for all new contractor licenses and is a separate requirement from the Class A and Class B examinations.
The pre-license education course is a basic business course that covers relevant regulations, statutes, and requirements that are necessary for every business owner. The course is not specific to any particular classification or specialty. A Board-approved advanced contractor class will also meet the requirements for the pre-license education course.
Every licensee ordered to complete remedial education must attend a full-day eight-hour class in person at DPOR. Classes are free, taught by certified DPOR staff, and offered once a month at DPOR offices in the Perimeter Center, 9960 Mayland Drive, Board Room 2 (directions here).
All class participants must be a member of the Responsible Management team listed on the contractor license. You must bring a photo ID with you to register. Credit will not be given unless you attend the entire length of the full-day class.
The Board for Contractors' Committee is responsible for reviewing applications from education providers seeking board approval. The Committee usually meets the day BEFORE the regularly scheduled Board meeting (schedule here) at 2:00 p.m.
Submission of correct and complete school/course applications must be received ONE MONTH PRIOR to the Committee meeting for consideration by the Committee and approval by the Board. The date of receipt by the Board office determines whether the application materials were received by the deadline.
The Board members do not work in the Board office. They come into the Board offices for Board meetings and hearings, but are not here on a daily basis. Board office staff members can answer your questions and are trained to process all information that comes into the Board office. Please do not contact Board members directly.
No. The Board's regulations provide a 30-day period after the expiration date in which a license may be renewed without penalty (therefore, your payment is actually 31 days late). Staff cannot waive the fee.
Board regulations state that if the requirements for renewal of a license, including receipt of the fee by the board, are not complete within 30 days of the expiration date, a reinstatement fee is required.
Once your license expires, you no longer have a license to engage in contracting. The 30-day period is not a license extension, but only an additional 30 days to complete your renewal and submit payment without having to pay the reinstatement fee.
The date the application or renewal was received in the agency determines whether it is on time, not the postmark date. If the renewal fee is received after the due date, you will be required to pay the reinstatement fee. If the reinstatement fee is received after the due date, you will be required to reapply for licensure, meeting all current requirements.
Many Boards allow you to update your ADDRESS using Online Services, so login to your personal profile to see if this is an option for your license type. The alternative is to complete, print, sign, and submit an Address Change Form to the Board office by mail. Unless updated online, all Address Change Forms must be received by the Board in writing. When providing a post office box as the mailing address, it must be accompanied by the physical address.
