  4. DJane must resign from Broker-Dealer A before she can register with Broker-Dealer B
Explanation

Why B — Jane must register separately with the state as an agent of Broker-Dealer B, with written consent from both firms

The USA does not prohibit dual registration, but an agent must be separately registered through each broker-dealer she represents. Both broker-dealers must provide written consent for the dual arrangement. Simply having one registration does not extend to work performed on behalf of another firm.
