By regulation, the Secretary shall stagger the terms of the licenses. Unless a license is renewed for a 3–year term as provided in this section, the license expires on the date the Secretary sets. At least 1 month before a license expires, the Secretary shall electronically transmit to the agency a notice that states: the date on which the current license expires; that the Secretary must receive the renewal application and proof of insurance or bonding as required in § 18–401 of this title at least 15 days before the license expiration date for the renewal to be issued and mailed before the license expires; the amount of the renewal fee; that, if the complete renewal application and proof of insurance or bonding as required in § 18–401 of this title are not received at least 15 days before the license expiration date, a fee of $25 per day shall be charged against the agency until the day the license expires, at which time the agency shall be considered closed; that an agency may not be issued a license under this title until all outstanding obligations are satisfied with the Secretary; and that the submission of a false statement in the renewal application or the submission of altered or false documents that are otherwise required is cause for revocation of the agency license. An agency periodically may renew the license for an additional 3–year term, if the license holder: otherwise is entitled to be licensed; pays to the Secretary in a method approved by the Secretary: a renewal fee of $100; the fee authorized under § 10–221(b)(7) of the Criminal Procedure Article for access to Maryland criminal history records; the mandatory processing fee required by the Federal Bureau of Investigation for a national criminal history records check; and any late fee required under this subtitle; and submits to the Secretary: a renewal application in the manner and format designated by the Secretary; two complete sets of the applicant’s legible fingerprints taken in a format approved by the Director of the Central Repository and the Director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation; and satisfactory evidence of compliance with any other requirements under this section for renewal of registration. In accordance with §§ 10–201 through 10–235 of the Criminal Procedure Article, the Central Repository shall forward to the applicant and the Department of State Police a printed statement of the applicant’s criminal history records information. The Secretary may waive the national criminal history records check required under subsection (d) of this section for an applicant who was issued a license under § 18–303(g) of this subtitle if the applicant pays to the Secretary, in a method approved by the Secretary, a processing fee of $100. If the renewal application was submitted as required in subsection (d) of this section and the national criminal history records check required under this section is not completed before the licensee’s license expires, the Secretary shall allow the licensee to operate in a temporary license status if the licensee otherwise meets the requirements of this section. A licensee may operate in a temporary license status at the time of renewal only if the renewal application and all required documents and fees were submitted by the expiration date of the license. The temporary license status shall expire at the earlier of: the completion of the national criminal history records check of the applicant; or the renewal or denial of the license. The Secretary shall renew the license of each applicant who meets the requirements of this section.
