(a) The application for a business license, a certified
applicator license, technician license, or for registration as an
apprentice under this chapter must be complete and submitted on a
form prescribed by the department. Failure to provide complete and
accurate information may result in a change of effective date of employment
as documented by the department.

similar license issued to the applicant by this or another state or
federal government has been revoked, suspended, probated or denied
during the preceding five (5)-year period for any reason. For the

for the practice of an occupation in which professional services are
normally provided in-person.

must designate in writing a resident agent for service of process
