Electronic Filing of Forms and Fees

PURPOSE:

Section 516.03, F.S., authorizes the Commission to require the electronic submission of any form, document, or fee, if such rules reasonably accommodate technological or financial hardships.

The proposed rule amendments simplify the process of requesting a hardship exemption. In addition, the rule amendments set forth the types of technological or financial hardships that will enable a person to qualify for an exemption.

SUMMARY:

The proposed rule amendments simplify the process of requesting an exemption from the requirement that forms and fees be filed electronically through the Office of Financial Regulation’s Regulatory Enforcement and Licensing (REAL) System. The amendments also set forth the types of technological or financial hardships that will enable a person to qualify for an exemption. This rule pertains to persons and businesses required to be licensed under Chapter 516, Florida Statutes.
