*Question G1D08:
[97.509(b)(3)] Which of the following criteria must be met for a non-US citizen to be an accredited Volunteer Examiner?*  

*Correct Answer is  B: The person must hold an FCC granted amateur radio license of General class or above*  

### AI Response: (may contain errors)  

For a non-US citizen to be an accredited Volunteer Examiner (VE), they must meet specific criteria set by the FCC. Let's break down the options:

1. **Correct Answer: B**  
   - **Explanation**: A non-US citizen can be a Volunteer Examiner if they hold an FCC-granted amateur radio license of General class or above. This requirement ensures that the VE has sufficient knowledge and experience in amateur radio operations, which is necessary for administering exams.

2. **Why the other choices are incorrect**:
   - **Choice A**: There is no residency duration requirement for a non-US citizen to become a VE. The key requirement is the class of the FCC license they hold, not how long they have lived in the US.
   - **Choice C**: The person's home citizenship does not need to be in ITU region 2. The ITU regions are related to international telecommunications regulations, but they do not affect the eligibility to be a VE.
   - **Choice D**: This choice is incorrect because non-US citizens can indeed become Volunteer Examiners, provided they meet the licensing requirement.

In summary, the primary criterion for a non-US citizen to be a Volunteer Examiner is holding a General class or higher FCC amateur radio license, ensuring they have the necessary qualifications to administer exams.
