The notice shall include a statement of the reasons and factual basis for the revocation or suspension and shall be accompanied by a copy of any pertinent records supporting the revocation or suspension. The notice shall also advise the individual of the right to seek administrative review of the revocation or suspension under s. Jus 17.09 or judicial review under s. 175.60(14m), Stats. The notice shall be sent to the individual by a method of shipment that provides confirmation of delivery, including the date of delivery.

(b) Mail to the department a signed statement indicating that the individual no longer has possession of the revoked or suspended license document and explaining the reasons why he or she no longer has possession.

(4) EFFECTIVE DATE OF REVOCATION OR SUSPENSION. Any suspension or revocation of a license under s. 175.60(14) (a) or (am), Stats., shall take effect on the date when the individual whose license has been revoked or suspended receives the notice of revocation or suspension under sub. (2).

(5) REINSTATEMENT OF SUSPENDED LICENSE. If the department receives information, pursuant to sub. (2) (b) or by other means, establishing that an individual whose license has been suspended under s. 175.60(14) (am) is no longer subject to the prohibition underlying that suspension, the department shall, within 5 business days of receiving that information, do the following in the sequence listed:

(a) Determine whether the suspended license has expired under s. 175.60(15) (a), Stats. If the suspended license has not expired, the department shall proceed under par.

(b). If the suspended license has expired, the department shall notify the individual that the suspended license cannot be reinstated unless the individual first complies with the license renewal requirements of s. 175.60(15), Stats.

(b) Conduct a background check of the individual for the purpose of determining whether reinstatement of the suspended license is prohibited under s. 175.60(3) (b), (c), (d), or (e), Stats. If reinstatement of the suspended license is not prohibited, the department shall proceed under par. (c). If reinstatement of the suspended license is prohibited, the department shall notify the individual in writing of the reason why the suspended license cannot be reinstated and shall include a copy of any background check records supporting the denial of reinstatement. Notice of a denial of reinstatement shall also advise the applicant of the right to seek administrative review under s.
