For each funeral home sponsoring a burial association, how many agents or representatives may be soliciting members?

  1. Three

  2. Five

  3. Seven

  4. Ten

The correct answer is: Five

In North Carolina, the regulations governing burial associations specify that each funeral home sponsoring such an association may have up to five agents or representatives actively soliciting members. This limit is in place to regulate the number of individuals involved in recruitment activities for burial associations, ensuring that the practices remain both ethical and manageable. Having a designated number of representatives allows for oversight and monitoring of their activities while also preventing any potential for aggressive or misleading solicitation practices. By restricting the number to five, the state seeks to balance the funeral homes’ ability to effectively promote their services with consumer protection, thereby fostering a more transparent marketplace for burial association memberships.
