Rule 655-17.6 - Suspension or revocation of a license-nonpayment of state debt

The board shall suspend or revoke a license upon the receipt of a certificate of noncompliance from the centralized collection unit of the department of revenue according to the procedures set forth in Iowa Code chapter 272D. In addition to the procedures set forth in chapter 272D, this rule shall apply.

(1) The notice required by Iowa Code section 272D.8 shall be served upon the licensee by restricted certified mail, return receipt requested, or personal service in accordance with Iowa Rule of Civil Procedure 1.305. Alternatively, the licensee may accept service personally or through authorized counsel.

(2) The effective date of revocation or suspension of a license, as specified in the notice required by Iowa Code section 272D.8, shall be 60 days following service of the notice upon the licensee.

(3) The board's executive officer is authorized to prepare and serve the notice required by Iowa Code section 272D.8 and is directed to notify the licensee that the license will be suspended unless the license is already suspended on other grounds. In the event the license is on suspension, the executive officer shall notify the licensee of the board's intent to revoke the license.

(4) Licensees shall keep the board informed of all court actions and all centralized collection unit actions taken under or in connection with Iowa Code chapter 272D and shall provide the board copies, within seven days of filing or issuance, of all applications filed with the district court pursuant to Iowa Code section 272D.9, all court orders entered in such actions, and withdrawals of certificates of noncompliance by the centralized collection unit.

(5) All board fees for license renewal or reinstatement must be paid by licensees, and all continuing education requirements must be satisfied before a license will be renewed or reinstated after the board has suspended or revoked a license pursuant to Iowa Code chapter 272D.

(6) In the event a licensee files a timely district court action following service of a board notice pursuant to Iowa Code sections 272D.8 and 272D.9, the board shall continue with the intended action described in the notice upon the receipt of a court order lifting the stay, dismissing the action, or otherwise directing the board to proceed. For purposes of determining the effective date of revocation or suspension of a license, the board shall count the number of days before the action was filed and the number of days after the action was disposed of by the court.

(7) The board shall notify the licensee in writing through regular first-class mail, or such other means as the board deems appropriate in the circumstances, within ten days of the effective date of the suspension or revocation of the license, and shall similarly notify the licensee or applicant when the license is issued or renewed following the board's receipt of a withdrawal certificate.
