69V-560.1012: Adoption of Forms
PURPOSE AND EFFECT: Paragraph 69V-560.1012(1)(a), F.A.C., is being amended to reduce fingerprint processing fees from $43.25 to $40.50. The current fee of $43.25 represents $24 charged by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement for a state criminal history check and $19.25 charged by the U.S. Department of Justice for a national criminal history check. The U.S. Department of Justice will be reducing its fee from $19.25 to $16.50. Therefore, Form OFR-560-01, which references the applicable fees, is being amended to reduce the fingerprint processing fees from $43.25 to $40.50.
SUMMARY: Paragraph 69V-560.1012(1)(a), F.A.C., is being amended to reduce fingerprint processing fees from $43.25 to $40.50. The current fee of $43.25 represents $24 charged by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement for a state criminal history check and $19.25 charged by the U.S. Department of Justice for a national criminal history check. The U.S. Department of Justice will be reducing its fee from $19.25 to $16.50. Therefore, Form OFR-560-01, which references the applicable fees, is being amended to reduce the fingerprint processing fees from $43.25 to $40.50.
SUMMARY OF STATEMENT OF ESTIMATED REGULATORY COSTS AND LEGISLATIVE RATIFICATION:
The Agency has determined that this will not have an adverse impact on small business or likely increase directly or indirectly regulatory costs in excess of $200,000 in the aggregate within one year after the implementation of the rule. A SERC has not been prepared by the agency.
The Agency has determined that the proposed rule is not expected to require legislative ratification based on the statement of estimated regulatory costs or if no SERC is required, the information expressly relied upon and described herein: 1) No requirement for a SERC was triggered under Section 120.541(1); and 2) The amendments will not exceed any one of the economic analysis criteria in a SERC, as set forth in Section 120.541(2)(a), F.S.
Any person who wishes to provide information regarding a statement of estimated regulatory costs, or provide a proposal for a lower cost regulatory alternative must do so in writing within 21 days of this notice.
