TREC application expired but portal says I already have an active application?

Hi everyone,

I honestly don’t know what to do anymore and I’m hoping someone here has been through the same situation.

I created my Texas realtor exam application on May 3, 2025. I took the exam recently and unfortunately failed it on May 2, 2026. From what I understand, the application is only valid for 1 year, so I thought I needed to submit a new one.

The problem is that when I go on the TREC/REALM portal and try to create a new application, I get this message:

“An error has occurred. Unable to apply for a new application, current application already present on this account.”

I already emailed TREC and never got a response. I also tried calling multiple times, but after waiting on hold for over an hour, the call disconnects.

Has anyone experienced this before? Do I need to wait for the old application to expire in the system first, or is there another way to renew/reapply?

Thank you so much for any help.
