Must all New York licensed Private Investigators maintain a principal place of business within New York State?

  1. True

  2. False

  3. Only if operating statewide

  4. Only if operating in multiple counties

The correct answer is: True

New York state law requires all licensed private investigators to maintain a principal place of business within the state. This means that PIs must have an office or other physical location within New York State. Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they all add an exception to this requirement, which does not exist under the current law. Therefore, the correct answer is A, as all licensed PIs must maintain a principal place of business within New York State.
