(1) The Bureau will notify the applicant in writing within ten business days after the receipt of an application that the application or a resubmitted application is complete and accepted for initial processing, or that an application or a resubmitted application is deficient and identify what specific additional information is required. For the purposes of this section, "complete application" means complete applicable form(s) required pursuant to Section 12112 or Section 12114, as appropriate.

(2) The Bureau will review any submitted supplemental information form(s) and notify the applicant of any deficiencies, or deem the supplemental information form(s) complete.
