(a)A person desiring to be certified or licensed as an appraiser, approved as an appraiser trainee, or registered as a temporary out-of-state appraiser shall file an application using forms prescribed by the Board or the Board's online application system, if available.

(b)An application may be considered void and subject to no further evaluation or processing if an applicant fails to provide information or documentation within 60 days after the Board makes written request for the information or documentation. (c)A certification, license, or appraiser trainee approval is valid for the term for which it is issued by the Board unless suspended or revoked for cause and unless revoked, may be renewed in accordance with the requirements of §153.17 of this title (relating to Renewal or Extension of Certification and License or Renewal of Trainee Approval). (d)The Board may deny certification, licensing, approval as an appraiser trainee, or registration for out-of-state temporary practice to an applicant who fails to satisfy the board as to the applicant's honesty, trustworthiness, and integrity. (e)The Board may deny certification, licensure, approval as an appraiser trainee, or registration for out-of-state temporary practice to an applicant who submits incomplete, false, or misleading information on the application or supporting documentation. (f)When an application is denied by the Board, no subsequent application will be accepted within one year of the application denial.

has been reviewed by legal counsel and found to be a valid exercise
