47-26-1110. Registration fees Expiration of certificates Disposition of funds.

(a)  The department shall charge a fee equivalent to eighteen dollars ($18.00) per year per registered serviceperson. Each service agency employing more than two (2) registered servicepersons shall pay a service agency registration fee equivalent to forty dollars ($40.00) per year. Such service agency registration fee shall not exempt the agency or individual from paying the required serviceperson registration fee. If an agency has more than one (1) office or branch, each office or branch must be licensed as outlined above.

(b)  The commissioner shall establish a system of license renewals at alternative intervals which will allow for the distribution of the license renewals at alternative intervals and distribute the license workload as uniformly as is practicable throughout the calendar year. Licenses issued under the alternative method are valid for twenty-four (24) months, and shall expire on the last day of the last month of the license period. During a transition period, or at any time thereafter when the commissioner determines that the volume of work for any given interval is unduly burdensome or costly, either licenses or renewals, or both of them may be issued for terms of not less than six (6) months nor more than eighteen (18) months. The fee imposed for any license under the alternative interval method for a period of other than twenty-four (24) months shall be proportionate to the annual fee and modified in no other manner, except that the proportional fee shall be rounded to the nearest quarter of a dollar ($.25). While the commissioner will attempt to forward certificate of registration renewal forms to all currently licensed persons and agencies, it is the licensed person's and agency's ultimate responsibility to ensure that their registration remains current.

(c)  A thirty-day (30) grace period shall be given to renew licenses. After the grace period expires, a twenty-five dollar ($25.00) late fee (not prorated per day) shall be levied on each renewal application.

(d)  All funds collected under the provisions of this part shall be credited to the department as expendable receipts to be used for the enforcement of this part.
