Correct Answer

A. The commission fee is $60 and the term is 4 years.

Detailed Explanation

This combines two of the most tested basics. Executive Law §§130 and 131 set a four-year commission term and a non-refundable $60 application fee. Not to be confused with the $10 duplicate-ID fee or the $15 exam fee, the commission fee itself remains $60.
