(A) If an applicant for an Ohio installer's license lives in a state with which Ohio has entered into a reciprocal licensing agreement, the division may waive the testing and training requirements for a non-resident provided the applicant holds a valid manufactured homes installer's license issued by a state with which the division has entered into a reciprocal licensing agreement.

In such circumstance, the non-resident installer may apply for a license by submitting a division approved application for a license by reciprocity to the division that includes a copy of the applicant's current license and proof that the license is not under suspension or probation and has not been revoked, and shall be accompanied by a fee in the amount as set forth in rule 4781-8-01 of the Administrative Code. A non-resident installer application for licensure shall be reviewed by the division.

(B) If an applicant for an Ohio installer's license lives in a state with which Ohio has not entered into a reciprocal licensing agreement, the division, in its discretion, may issue an Ohio license to such non-resident applicant if:

(1) The applicant holds a license from a state that maintains licensure requirements considered by the division to be comparable to those of the state of Ohio;

(2) The applicant has submitted a completed division - approved application form to the division along with proof that the applicant's license has not been revoked and is not currently under suspension or any disciplinary sanctions;

(3) The applicant pays a nonrefundable fee in the amount set forth in paragraph (G) of rule 4781-8-01 of the Administrative Code;

(4) Passed the installer's examination as set forth in rule 4781-8-07 of the Administrative Code; and

(5) Obtains approval of the division to be licensed as an installer in Ohio.

(C) Applicants for Ohio licenses that do not live in states in which Ohio has a reciprocal licensing agreement, or live in states that the division has determined do not have comparable licensing requirements, shall apply for an Ohio license in accordance with rule 4781-8-01 of the Administrative Code and shall be required to meet all of the criteria for licensing in Ohio.

(D) All non-resident installers shall notify the division of any change in address or residency status. A licensed non-resident installer who establishes permanent residency in the state of Ohio shall, upon expiration of the non-resident license, be required to apply for a new license in accordance with rule 4781-8-01 of the Administrative Code.
