RULE §80.106Renewals

(a) A license may be renewed upon:

  (1) submission of a completed application for renewal through NMLS together with payment of the applicable renewal application fee; and

  (2) a determination that the applicant continues to meet the minimum requirements for licensure.

(b) Commissioner's Discretion to Approve with a Deficiency. The Commissioner may, in his or her sole discretion, approve a renewal application with a deficiency the Commissioner deems to be minor in nature so as to allow the licensee to continue conducting regulated activities under the license while the deficiency is resolved. An application approved by the Commissioner with a pending deficiency will be assigned in NMLS the license status code "Approved - Deficient." Approval of the application by this method does not relieve the licensee of the obligation to resolve the deficiency noted. Failure to resolve such deficiency constitutes grounds for the Commissioner to take disciplinary action against the licensee, including suspension or revocation of the license.

(c) Supplemental Information. The Commissioner may require such additional, clarifying, or supplemental information from any applicant for the renewal of any license issued pursuant to Finance Code Chapter 156 as is deemed by the Commissioner to be necessary or advisable to determine compliance with the requirements of Finance Code Chapter 156.

(d) Reinstatement. The provisions of this section also apply to a person seeking reinstatement of a recently-expired license, as provided by Tex. Fin. Code §156.2081, and should be construed accordingly.
