(d) Within 30 business days of receipt of an application for certification, the Division shall inform the applicant in writing either that the application is either complete and accepted for filing, or that the application is deficient and requires supplementation with additional information or documentation.
(1) An application shall be deemed complete if it is in compliance with the requirements of this section.
(2) A notice that the application is deficient shall explain what specific information or documentation is required to complete the application.

Where such an extension is made by the Division, the insurer's period of provisional certification shall be deemed extended by an equal amount of time pursuant to section 339.2(b).

(e) Within 30 business days of the date of acceptance for filing of a completed application, the Division shall issue to the applicant:
