Current through Register No. 12, March 21, 2024

(a) The executive director shall grant a license to each applicant who is licensed in another jurisdiction in the profession for which application is being made and who provides all items specified in Plc 313.03 including without limitation proof that the applicant holds an license in good standing in another jurisdiction based on requirements that are substantially similar to New Hampshire's and has committed no acts or omissions that are grounds for disciplinary action.

(b) If the information submitted by the applicant shows that the applicant does not qualify for a license by endorsement, the executive director shall deny the application.

(c) If the information submitted by the applicant shows that the applicant qualifies for a license by endorsement but applicable law requires a criminal background check and the OPLC has not yet received the results from the NHDOS, the executive director shall issue a provisional license that allows the applicant to practice in New Hampshire pending the results of the criminal background check.

(d) If a provisional license is issued pursuant to (c), above, then when the results of the criminal background check are received, the executive director shall:

(1) Issue a regular license to the provisional licensee, if the results do not show grounds to deny the application; or

(2) If the results do show grounds to deny the application, notify the licensee in writing and refer the matter to the applicable board for a hearing.

(e) If the information submitted by the applicant is insufficient to allow the executive director to issue or deny a license by endorsement, the executive director shall request the applicant to provide the additional information needed to allow a determination to be made.

(f) Denial of a license by endorsement under this part shall not automatically result in denial of a regular license should the individual choose to apply under Plc 304.
