Licensing of Persons withCriminal Background§140.377 Request for Criminal HistoryEvaluation Letter.NOTE 1: The DSHS rules that are not listed in the chart above were not incorporated into the TDLR rules for several reasons:1) TDLR eliminated rules that were already addressed in the Commission’s and Department’s enabling statute, Occupations Code Chapter 51, and in the procedural rules at16 TAC Chapter 60, both of which apply to all TDLR programs. Examples include: Late Renewal Timeframes Petitions for Rulemaking Complaints and Alleged Violations Administrative Hearings Enforcement and Disciplinary Actions Provisions Regarding Applicants with Criminal Histories Military Licensing Provisions2) TDLR eliminated rules that are no longer relevant based on differences between the DSHS and the TDLR structures, processes, or procedures;3) TDLR eliminated rules on issues that are addressed by other methods such as the Criminal Conviction Guidelines and the Enforcement Penalty Matrix.4) TDLR eliminated rules that are not supported or authorized by the current statute (with the exception of standard of care and scope of practice rules).NOTE 2: The fees section of the TDLR rules has been reformatted using the fee structure and amounts for programs regulated by TDLR.TDLR removed program-specific rules and adopted the TDLR standard fees for: Dishonored Payment Device (16 TAC §60.82) 50. Criminal History Determination Letter (16 TAC §60.42) 25. Late Renewal Fee Schedule (Occ. Code §51.401 and 16 TAC §60.83):o Expired 90 days or less One and one half times the regular renewal fee;o Expired 91 days to less than 18 months Two times the regular renewal fee;o Expired 18 months to less than 3 years (with Executive Director’s approval) Two times the regular renewal fee. Standardized fee changes for the items above resulted in some TDLR fees being higher and some being lower than the DSHS fees.TDLR rules also eliminated the following DSHS fees that are not charged by TDLR:7
