1. The applicant is in good standing;

2. The applicant has not committed an act in any jurisdiction where the applicant has or had a license that would have constituted grounds for the refusal, suspension, or revocation of a license or certificate to practice; and

3. The applicant has not been disciplined by a licensing or cre-dentialing entity in another jurisdiction and is not the subject of an unresolved complaint, review procedure or disciplinary proceeding by a licensing or credentialing entity in another jurisdiction; and

(F) Such additional information as the board may request to determine eligibility for a temporary courtesy license.
