1. 1. The commissioner shall deny an appraiser’s or umpire’s application for license issuance, renewal, reinstatement, or reissuance; suspend a current license; or revoke a currently suspended license upon receipt of a certificate of noncompliance from the child support recovery unit pursuant to chapter 252J, or upon receipt of a certificate of noncompliance from the centralized collection unit of the department of revenue pursuant to chapter 272D.

2. 2. Upon receipt of a certificate of noncompliance under subsection 1, the commissioner shall issue a notice to the appraiser or umpire that the division will, unless the certificate of noncompliance is withdrawn, deny the appraiser’s or umpire’s application for license issuance, renewal, reinstatement, or reissuance, suspend the appraiser’s or umpire’s current license, or revoke the appraiser’s or umpire’s currently suspended license, thirty calendar days after the date the notice is mailed. Notice shall be sent to the appraiser’s or umpire’s last known address by restricted certified mail, return receipt requested, or in accordance with the division’s rules for service. The notice shall contain all of the following:

   1. a. A statement that the commissioner intends to deny the appraiser’s or umpire’s application for license issuance, renewal, reinstatement, or reissuance; suspend the appraiser’s or umpire’s current license; or revoke the appraiser’s or umpire’s currently suspended license in thirty calendar days unless the certificate of noncompliance is withdrawn.
   2. b. A statement that the appraiser or umpire must contact the agency that issued the certificate of noncompliance to request a withdrawal.
   3. c. A statement that the appraiser or umpire does not have a right to a hearing before the division, but that the appraiser or umpire may file an application for a hearing in district court pursuant to section 252J.9 or 272D.9, as applicable, and that the filing of an application by the appraiser or umpire will stay the proceedings of the division.
   4. d. A copy of the certificate of noncompliance.
3. 3. An appraiser or umpire shall keep the commissioner informed of all actions taken by the district court or the issuing agency in connection with a certificate of noncompliance. An appraiser or umpire shall provide to the commissioner, within seven calendar days of filing or issuance, a copy of all applications filed with the district court pursuant to an application or hearing, all court orders entered in such action, and all withdrawals of a certificate of noncompliance.
4. 4. If an applicant, appraiser, or umpire timely files an application for hearing in district court and the division is notified of the filing, the commissioner’s denial, suspension, or revocation proceedings shall be stayed until the division is notified by the district court, the issuing agency, the licensee, or the applicant of the resolution of the application. Upon receipt of a court order lifting the stay or otherwise directing the commissioner to proceed, the commissioner shall continue with the intended action described in the notice.
5. 5. If the commissioner does not receive a withdrawal of the certificate of noncompliance from the issuing agency, or a notice from a clerk of court, the issuing agency, the appraiser, the umpire, or the applicant that an application for hearing has been filed within thirty calendar days after the notice is issued, the commissioner shall deny the applicant’s, appraiser’s, or umpire’s application for license issuance, renewal, reinstatement, or reissuance; suspend a current license; or revoke a currently suspended license.
6. 6. Upon receipt of a withdrawal of a certificate of noncompliance from the issuing agency, suspension or revocation proceedings shall halt and the named appraiser or umpire shall be notified that the proceedings have halted. If the appraiser’s or umpire’s license has already been suspended, the appraiser or umpire must apply for reinstatement in accordance with section 522F.22, and the license shall be reinstated if the appraiser or umpire is otherwise in compliance with this chapter. If the appraiser’s or umpire’s application for licensure was stayed, application processing shall resume. All fees required for license renewal, reinstatement, or reissuance must be paid by an appraiser or umpire, and all continuing education requirements shall be satisfied, before the appraiser’s or umpire’s license is renewed or reinstated after a license suspension or revocation under this chapter.
7. 7. The commissioner shall notify an appraiser or umpire in writing through regular first class mail, or such other means as the commissioner deems appropriate under the circumstances, within ten calendar days of the effective date of the suspension or revocation of the appraiser’s or umpire’s license, and shall also notify the appraiser or umpire when the appraiser’s or umpire’s license is reinstated following the commissioner’s receipt of a withdrawal of the certificate of noncompliance.
8. 8. Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, the division may share information with the child support recovery unit or the centralized collection unit of the department of revenue for the sole purpose of identifying appraisers or umpires subject to enforcement under chapter 252J or 272D.
