Is there a penalty for not filing my annual report and annual assessment on time?
(1) If you fail to submit the required annual report and annual assessment fee by July 1, each year, the director may suspend your license and assess a late fee. The late fee is ten percent of the annual assessment if submitted thirty or fewer days late and twenty-five percent of the annual assessment if submitted more than thirty days late. The annual report and annual assessment fee are not considered to be submitted until the date both have been submitted. If your license has been suspended under this section and you submit a completed annual report, the annual assessment and the late fee to the department office no later than 5:00 p.m., thirty calendar days after the original due date, the license suspension may be removed. If the delay extends past thirty days, your license has expired effective thirty-one days after the original due date.
(2) The director may reinstate an expired license under this section if, within twenty days after the license expiration, you:
(a) File the complete annual report and pay both the annual license assessment and the late fee; and
(b) You or your delegates did not engage in providing money services during the period the license was expired.
(3) If any of the deadlines in this section occur on a day that is not a business day, the deadline shall be the next business day.
