| 4 | Remove lines 1625-1688 and insert: |
| 5 | (g) Submit additional information or documentation |
| 6 | requested by the office and required by rule concerning the |
| 7 | applicant. Additional information may include documentation of |
| 8 | pending and prior disciplinary and criminal history events, |
| 9 | including arrest reports and certified copies of charging |
| 10 | documents, plea agreements, judgments and sentencing documents, |
| 11 | documents relating to pretrial intervention, orders terminating |
| 12 | probation or supervised release, final administrative agency |
| 13 | orders, or other comparable documents that may provide the |
| 14 | office with the appropriate information to determine eligibility |
| 15 | for licensure. |
| 16 | (h) Submit any other information required by the registry |
| 17 | for the processing of the application. |
| 18 | (3) An application is considered received for the purposes |
| 19 | of s. 120.60 upon the office's receipt of all documentation from |
| 20 | the registry, including the completed application form, |
| 21 | documentation of completion of the prelicensure class, test |
| 22 | results, and criminal history information, as well as the |
| 23 | license application fee, the fee required by s. 494.00172, and |
| 24 | all applicable fingerprinting processing fees. |
| 25 | (4)(a) The office shall issue a loan originator license to |
| 26 | each person who is not otherwise ineligible and who meets the |
| 27 | requirements of this section. However, it is a ground for denial |
| 28 | of licensure if the applicant: |
| 29 | 1. Has committed any violation specified in ss. 494.001- |
| 30 | 494.0077, or is the subject of a pending felony criminal |
| 31 | prosecution or a prosecution or an administrative enforcement |
| 32 | action, in any jurisdiction, which involves fraud, dishonesty, |
| 33 | breach of trust, money laundering, or any other act of moral |
| 34 | turpitude. |
| 35 | 2. Has failed to demonstrate the character, general |
| 36 | fitness, and financial responsibility necessary to command the |
| 37 | confidence of the community and warrant a determination that the |
| 38 | applicant will operate honestly, fairly, and efficiently. |
| 39 | (b) If the office has information that could form the |
| 40 | basis for license denial under this subsection, before denying |
| 41 | the license, the office must notify the applicant in writing of |
| 42 | the specific items of concern and provide the applicant with an |
| 43 | opportunity to explain the circumstances surrounding the |
| 44 | specific items and provide any information that the applicant |
| 45 | believes is relevant to the office's determination. |
