An agent may begin to solicit insurance only after being appointed by an insurer, as this is the formal process of giving an agent permission to act on their behalf. This means that options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not address the necessary step of being appointed by an insurer. While completing a training course and passing a background check are likely required before being appointed, they alone do not grant an agent the ability to solicit insurance. Additionally, receiving a request from a potential client does not necessarily mean the agent has been appointed by an insurer, and thus is not a valid answer.
