(a) The fees for certification services shall be based
on a study conducted periodically by the State Board for Educator
Certification of the actual costs of the services.
(b) The fees for authorizing a permit shall be paid
by the requesting school district.
(c) The certificate of an applicant who does not pay
the applicable certification fee, either by failing to remit full
payment or by sending a check that is dishonored, shall be placed
on inactive status if the applicant does not pay the full certification
fee and any related processing fees within 60 calendar days from the
date the notice of payment deficiency is sent to the applicant. The
inactive status of a certificate will render the certificate holder
ineligible for employment in a Texas school district. A certificate
placed on inactive status in accordance with the provisions of this
subsection will be returned to active status upon receipt of full
payment of all applicable fees, unless the term of the certificate
has already expired.
