A real estate appraiser's license or certificate that has not been renewed for a period greater than two years shall not be reinstated, and the person must submit a new application for licensure or certification.

A person who fails to renew his or her license or certificate before the applicable renewal date may have it reinstated if the person submits an application as prescribed by the board:

Within thirty-one days after the date of expiration, by payment of the regular renewal fee;

If the federal registry fee collected by the board and transmitted to the federal financial institutions examination council is increased prior to expiration of a license or certificate, the board shall collect the amount of the increase in the fee from the holder of the license or certificate and forward the amount to the council annually. The federal registry fee does not apply to licensed ad valorem appraisers licensed under this article 10.

If the applicant has complied with this section and any applicable rules of the board regarding renewal, except for the continuing education requirements pursuant to section

, the licensee may renew the license on inactive status. An inactive license may be activated if the licensee submits written certification of compliance with the required number of continuing education hours as determined by the Appraiser Qualifications Board of the Appraisal Foundation or its successor organization. The board may adopt rules establishing procedures to facilitate reactivation of licenses.
(b)
The holder of an inactive license shall not perform a real estate appraisal or appraisal management duties.
(c)
The holder of an inactive license shall not hold himself or herself out as having an active license pursuant to this part 6.

At the time of renewal or reinstatement, every licensee, certificate holder, and person or individual who owns more than ten percent of an appraisal management company shall submit a set of fingerprints to the Colorado bureau of investigation for the purpose of conducting a state and national fingerprint-based criminal history record check utilizing records of the Colorado bureau of investigation and the federal bureau of investigation, if the person has not previously done so for issuance of a license or certification by the board. Each person submitting a set of fingerprints shall pay the fee established by the Colorado bureau of investigation for conducting the fingerprint-based criminal history record check to the bureau. The bureau shall forward the results to the board. The board shall require a name-based judicial record check, as defined in section
22-2-119.3(6)(d)
, for an applicant who has a record of arrest without a disposition. The applicant shall pay the costs associated with a name-based judicial record check. The board may refuse to renew or reinstate a license or certification based on the outcome of the record check.
