First, you must update your name in your HUDHousingCounselors.hud.gov User Profile by logging into your account and selecting "Edit" on the User Profile Dashboard.

Next, you must transfer the update to Kryterion's Webassessor site. In order to transmit the new information to Webassessor:

Certification Exam - Retake Limit Override

Dear Counselor,

There is no limit on how many times you can take the exam. However, the registration system does limit the number of times a candidate can register for the exam. 

If you receive a notice about maximum attempts, please call Support at 210-489-1461. Support will manually unlock the registration system while on the phone with you allowing you to register. Please do not call Support for assistance until you are ready to complete registration and pay for the exam.
