When does the biennial renewal of a funeral director, embalmer or undertaker's registration take place?

• A. January 1st of each even year
• B. July 1st of each even year
• C. July 1st of each odd year
• D. December 31st of each year

Answer: (B)

Biennial renewal means renewing every two years, not annually. For funeral directors, embalmers, and undertakers in New York, the renewal date is fixed on July 1 of even-numbered years. This establishes a two-year cycle beginning on July 1 and ending the day before the next renewal. For example, renewing on July 1, 2024 sets the period through June 30, 2026. The other dates don’t fit the established two-year schedule, so they’re not correct.
