Iowa Code Title XIII. Commerce [Chs. 505-554D] § 522F.5. Appraiser license reinstatement--not related to disciplinary action

1. An appraiser may apply for reinstatement of an expired license up to one year after the license expiration date by submitting a request through the NIPR gateway, paying a reinstatement fee and a license renewal fee, and submitting evidence to the division that the appraiser met the continuing education requirements under section 522F.4.  An appraiser who fails to apply for license reinstatement within one year of the date of expiration of the appraiser's license must apply for a new license.

2. An appraiser who surrendered a license, not in connection with a disciplinary matter, and stated an intent to exit the appraiser business may file a request with the division to reactivate the appraiser license.  The request must be received by the division within ninety calendar days of the date the appraiser's license was placed on inactive status.  The request shall be granted if the former appraiser is otherwise eligible to receive an appraiser license.  If the appraiser's request to reactivate the license is not received within ninety calendar days of the date the appraiser's license was placed on inactive status, the appraiser must apply for a new license.

3. An appraiser whose license is suspended, revoked, or forfeited in connection with a disciplinary matter, or forfeited in lieu of compliance, shall not be eligible for reinstatement under this section and must follow the procedures in section 522F.22.
