Rule 193-7.40 - Denial of Application to Renew License

Universal Citation: IA Admin Code 193-7.40

Current through Register Vol. 47, No. 6, September 18, 2024

If the board denies a timely and sufficient application to renew a license, a notice of hearing will be issued to commence a contested case proceeding.

(1) Hearings on denial of an application to renew a license will be conducted according to the procedural rules applicable to contested cases. Evidence supporting the denial of the license may be presented by an assistant attorney general. The provisions of subrules 7.39(2) and 7.39(4) to 7.39(6) will generally apply, although license denial hearings that are in the nature of disciplinary actions will be subject to all laws and rules applicable to such hearings.

(2) Pursuant to Iowa Code section 17A.18(2), an existing license will not terminate or expire if the licensee has made timely and sufficient application for renewal until the last day for seeking judicial review of the board's final order denying the application, or a later date fixed by order of the board or the reviewing court.

(3) Within the meaning of Iowa Code section 17A.18(2), a timely and sufficient renewal application will be:

a. Received by the board in paper or electronic form, or postmarked with a nonmetered United States Postal Service postmark on or before the date the license is set to expire or lapse;

b. Signed by the licensee if submitted in paper form or certified as accurate if submitted electronically;

c. Fully completed; and

d. Accompanied with the proper fee. The fee will be deemed improper if, for instance, the amount is incorrect, the fee was not included with the application, the credit card number provided by the applicant is incorrect, the date of expiration of a credit card is omitted or incorrect, the attempted credit card transaction is rejected, or the applicant's check is returned for insufficient funds.

(4) The administrative processing of an application to renew an existing license will not prevent the board from subsequently commencing a contested case to challenge the licensee's qualifications for continued licensure if grounds exist to do so.
