SECTION/RULE §55.105 - Conditional License

(a) Conditional License; Terms and Conditions. The Commissioner may, in his or her sole discretion, issue a license on a conditional basis. A conditional license will be assigned the license status "Approved - Conditional" in NMLS. Reasonable terms and conditions for a conditional license include:(1) requiring the originator to undergo additional credit checks or provide evidence of satisfaction concerning a debt, judgment, lien, child support obligation, or other financial delinquency affecting his or her financial condition;(2) requiring the originator to undergo additional criminal background checks or provide information on a periodic basis or upon request concerning the status of a pending criminal proceeding that might affect his or her eligibility for the license;(3) requiring the originator to take other specific action or provide other specified information to address a known deficiency; and(4) requiring the originator to surrender the license upon the occurrence of an event that would render the originator ineligible for the license.(b) Probated Suspensions and Revocations. A license subject to a probated suspension or revocation is deemed to be a conditional license.(c) Conditional License in Lieu of Denial. The Commissioner may issue a license on a conditional basis in lieu of seeking denial of the license where the Commissioner determines the individual applying for the license has the capacity to resolve the deficiency serving as grounds for the denial in a reasonable period of time. The granting of a license under this subsection is a voluntarily forbearance from seeking denial of the license and does not operate as a waiver by the Commissioner of any grounds he or she has to seek denial of the license. The Commissioner is under no obligation to continue the license on a conditional basis and may seek denial in the future based on the same or similar circumstances that existed at the time the conditional license was granted.
