What must the VE team do if an examinee scores a passing grade on all examination elements needed for an upgrade or new license?

When an examinee passes the necessary elements for a new license or upgrade, the examination process requires a formal, multi-person certification. FCC rules mandate that exactly three accredited Volunteer Examiners (VEs) who administered the exam sign the candidate's paperwork. By signing the Certificate of Successful Completion of Examination (CSCE) and the application, these three VEs officially certify that the examinee is qualified for the license grant and that the examination was conducted in full compliance with FCC and VEC requirements. The VEs do not actually 'issue' the license themselves; only the FCC has the authority to issue licenses. Furthermore, they forward the documents to their VEC rather than directly to the FCC, making the distractor options incorrect.
