Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 6, March 18, 2024
(a) Upon receipt of a completed application and application fee, the Committee shall issue a license to any person who documents that the person holds a valid, current corresponding license in good standing by another state, if:
(b) Prior to issuing a license, the Committee shall have received, or obtained, the following:
(c) If the education and examination requirements in the state in which the applicant is licensed are not substantially equivalent to the Committee's current standards as required in (a) above, the Committee will consider an applicant's individual experience to compensate for such disparity. In making a determination whether an applicant's experience would compensate for such disparity in substantial equivalence in education or examination, the Committee shall consider the following:
(d) An applicant shall satisfy, or shall have satisfied, all applicable prerequisites required for initial licensure in this State.
(e) Not later than six months after the issuance of a license, an applicant shall provide the Committee with evidence, reasonably satisfactory to the Committee, verifying an applicant's education, training, and examination results.
(f) The Committee, after the licensee has been given notice and an opportunity to be heard, may revoke any license based on a license issued by another state obtained through fraud, deception, or misrepresentation.
(g) The Committee may grant a license to an applicant seeking reciprocity who holds a license from another state who does not meet the good standing requirement of (h) below due to a pending action by a licensing board; a pending action by an out-of-State institution, organization, or employer affecting the applicant's privileges to practice; a pending disciplinary proceeding; or a pending criminal charge or arrest for a crime, provided the alleged conduct of the applicant that is the subject of the action, proceeding, charge, or arrest, assuming it is true, does not demonstrate a serious inability to practice home inspection; adversely affect public health, safety, and welfare; or result in economic or physical harm to a person or create a significant threat of such harm.
