61-30-14. Issuance and renewal of registration, licenses and certificates. (Repealed effective July 1, 2012.)

A.     The board shall issue to each qualified applicant evidence of registration, a license or a certificate in a form and size prescribed by the board.   

B.     The board in its discretion may renew registrations, licenses or certificates for periods of one, two or three years for the purpose of coordinating continuing education requirements with registration, license or certificate renewal requirements.   

C.     Each registration, license or certificate holder shall submit proof of compliance with continuing education requirements and the renewal fee.   

D.     At the election of eligible holders of a registration, license or certificate who perform or seek to perform appraisals in federally related transactions under the federal real estate appraisal reform amendments, each application for renewal shall include payment of a registry fee set by the federal financial institutions examination council. The registry fee shall be transmitted by the board to the federal financial institutions examination council. Notice of whether the state apprentice real estate appraiser, state licensed real estate appraiser or state certified real estate appraiser has paid the federal registry fee and is thus eligible to perform in federally related transactions shall be included on the face of each registration, license and certificate issued by the board.   

E.     The board shall certify renewal of each registration, license or certificate in the absence of any reason or condition that might warrant the refusal of the renewal of a registration, license or certificate.   

F.     In the event any registration, license or certificate holder fails to properly apply for renewal of the registration, license or certificate within the thirty days immediately following his registration, license or certificate renewal date of any given year, the registration, license or certificate shall expire thirty days following the renewal date.   

G.     The board may renew an expired registration upon application, payment of the current annual renewal fee, submission of proof of compliance with continuing education requirements and payment of a reinstatement fee in the amount not to exceed two hundred dollars ($200), in addition to any other fee permitted under the Real Estate Appraisers Act [61-30-1 NMSA 1978].   

H.     The board may renew an expired license or certificate upon application, payment of the current annual renewal fee, submission of proof of compliance with continuing education requirements and payment of the reinstatement fee, in addition to any other fee permitted under the Real Estate Appraisers Act; provided that the board may, in the board's discretion, treat the former certificate holder as a new applicant and further may require reexamination as a condition to reissuance of a certificate.   

I.     If during a period of one year from the date a registration, license or certificate expires, the registration, license or certificate holder is either absent from this state on active duty military service or is suffering from an illness or injury of such severity that the person is physically or mentally incapable of renewal of the registration, license or certificate, payment of the reinstatement fee and, in the case of a license or certificate holder, reexamination shall not be required by the board if, within three months of the person's permanent return to this state or sufficient recovery from illness or injury to allow the person to make an application, the person makes application to the board for renewal. A copy of the person's military orders or a certificate of the applicant's physician shall accompany the application.   

J.     The board may adopt additional requirements by rule for the issuance or renewal of registrations, licenses or certificates to maintain or upgrade real estate appraiser qualifications at a level no less than the recommendations of the appraiser qualifications board of the appraisal foundation or the requirements of the appraisal subcommittee.
