In addition to the procedures set forth in Iowa Code chapter 252J, the rules in this chapter shall apply.

(1) The notice required by Iowa Code section 252J.8 shall be served upon the applicant or licensee by restricted certified mail, return receipt requested, or personal service in accordance with Iowa Rule of Civil Procedure 1.305. Alternatively, the applicant or licensee may accept service personally or through authorized counsel.

(3) The department director or designee of the director is authorized to prepare and serve the notice as required by Iowa Code section 252J.8 upon the applicant or licensee.

(4) Licensees and license applicants shall keep the department informed of all court actions, and all child support recovery unit actions taken under or in connection with Iowa Code chapter 252J, and shall provide the department copies, within seven days of filing or issuance, of all applications filed with the district court pursuant to Iowa Code section 252J.9, all court orders entered in such actions, and withdrawals of certificates of noncompliance by the child support recovery unit.

(5) All department fees for license applications, license renewal or reinstatement must be paid by licensees or applicants before a license will be issued, renewed or reinstated after the department has denied the issuance or renewal of a license, or has suspended or revoked a license pursuant to Iowa Code chapter 252J.

(6) A licensee or applicant may file an application with the district court within 30 days of service of a department notice pursuant to Iowa Code sections 252J.8 and 252J.9.

a. The filing of the application shall stay the department action until the department receives a court order lifting the stay, dismissing the action, or otherwise directing the department to proceed.

b. For purposes of determining the effective date of the revocation or suspension, or denial of the issuance or renewal of a license, the department shall count the number of days before the action was filed and the number of days after the action was disposed of by the court.

(7) The department shall notify the applicant or licensee in writing through regular first-class mail, or such other means as the department deems appropriate in the circumstances, within ten days of the effective date of the suspension or revocation of a license or the denial of the issuance or renewal of a license, and shall similarly notify the applicant or licensee when the license is issued, renewed, or reinstated following the department's receipt of a withdrawal of the certificate of noncompliance.

This rule is intended to implement Iowa Code chapter 252J.
