				supervising instructor or instructor authorization, or in its order suspending
				the eligibility of a person to hold or apply for such authorization, specify
				the period during which the suspension is to be in effect. The suspension
				period shall not exceed 2 years. A person whose authorization or eligibility
				has been previously suspended who subsequently seeks authorization pursuant to
				this rule chapter must apply and qualify in the same manner as a first-time
				applicant and is subject to the requirements of this rule chapter and Section
				 626.207, F.S. Additionally, the
				Department shall not approve an application if it finds that the circumstance
				or circumstances for which the authorization or eligibility was suspended still
				exist or are likely to recur. The waiting periods specified in Section
				 626.207, F.S., also apply to the
				applicants.
(2) No person or
				appointee under any authorization revoked by the Department, or any person
				whose eligibility to hold same has been revoked by the Department, shall apply
				for another authorization under this rule chapter within 2 years from the
				effective date of such revocation or, if judicial review of such revocation is
				sought, within 2 years from the date of final court order or decree affirming
				the revocation. A person whose authorization or eligibility has been previously
				revoked who subsequently seeks authorization pursuant to this rule chapter must
				apply and qualify for authorization in the same manner as a first-time
				applicant and is subject to the requirements of this rule chapter and Section
				 626.207, F.S. In addition, the
				Department shall not grant a new authorization or reinstate eligibility to hold
				such authorization if it finds that the circumstance or circumstances for which
				the eligibility was revoked or for which the previous authorization was revoked
				still exist or are likely to recur. The waiting periods specified in Section
				 626.207, F.S., also apply to the
				applicants.
(3) The Department
				shall not grant or issue any authorization under this rule chapter to any
				person whose authorization or eligibility has been revoked twice.
(4) During the period of suspension or
				revocation of an authorization, and until a new authorization is issued, the
				former provider, school official, supervising instructor or instructor may not
				engage in or attempt or profess to engage in any transaction or business for
				which an authorization is required under this rule chapter.
(5) Upon suspension or revocation of any one
				authorization of a person, or upon suspension or revocation of eligibility to
				hold an authorization, the Department shall also suspend or revoke any other
				authorization or status of eligibility held by the person under this rule
				chapter.
