The original application process is as follows:
(1) Original application process. Within 60 days after
receipt of a complete original application, the department will process
the application and grant or deny an original certificate of registration.
The department will send a certificate of registration to an entity
that is granted a certificate of registration. The applicant may waive
the time limit described in this paragraph.
(2) Omissions or deficiencies.
(A) The department will send the applicant written
notice of any omissions or deficiencies in the original application.
(B) The applicant must correct the omissions or deficiencies
in the application within 15 days of the date of the department's
latest notice of omissions or deficiencies. The applicant may request
additional time, not to exceed 30 days, in writing, to correct the
omissions or deficiencies. In the request, the applicant must include
sufficient detail for the commissioner to determine whether there
is good cause to grant additional time for the applicant to correct
the omissions or deficiencies. The decision to grant or deny a request
for additional time is at the discretion of the commissioner.
(C) If the applicant fails to correct the omissions
or deficiencies within 15 days, or 45 days if the applicant requested
and was granted the maximum amount of additional time, the department
will close the application as incomplete. The application fee is not
refundable.
(3) The department will maintain a charter file that
will contain the application, notices of omissions or deficiencies,
responses, and any written materials generated by any person that
were considered by the department in evaluating the application.
