RULE §745.345When does Licensing issue an initial license?

We issue you an initial license instead of a full license when we accept your application, determine that your operation is in compliance with applicable minimum standards, rules, and statutes, you pay the initial license fee, and one of the following situations exists:

  (1) We have not been able to evaluate your operation's ability to comply with all minimum standards, rules, and statutes relating to children in care because:

    (A) Your operation is not currently providing care to children; or

    (B) Your operation has been operating without a license;

  (2) Your operation has changed location and has made changes in the type of child-care services it offers;

  (3) We licensed you for one type of child care, and you apply to add another type of child care to your program (an initial license is issued for the new type of child care); or

  (4) Change in ownership results in changes in policy and procedure or in the staff who have direct contact with the children. (See §745.437 of this subchapter (relating to What is a change in the ownership of an operation?)).
