MISSISSIPPI CODE OF 1972
As Amended

SEC. 73-7-19. Renewal of license; fees.

Until June 30, 2001, all licenses issued under the provisions of this chapter shall expire one (1) year from date of issue; however, the board may authorize any licensee to renew his or her license for a two-year period until June 30, 2001, after which all licenses shall be renewed biennially under the fee schedule in Section 73-7-29. Applications for renewal of licenses for cosmetologists, estheticians, manicurists, wig specialists and instructors must be accompanied by the required renewal fee. A grace period of sixty (60) days will be given in which to renew the license; and upon the expiration of the grace period of sixty (60) days, any applicant for the renewal of a license will be required to pay the required renewal fee and a delinquent fee in addition to the renewal fee. The fees may be paid by either personal or certified check, cash or money order, under such safeguards, rules and regulations as the board may prescribe. Checks returned to the board because of insufficient funds shall result in nonrenewal of the license, which will require the penalty fee for insufficient fund checks plus all other amounts due for renewal of the license before the license may be renewed. After one (1) year has passed from the expiration date of the license, a delinquent fee must be paid for each year up to three (3) years, after which the required examination must be taken. All applications for examination required by this chapter shall expire ninety (90) days from the date thereof.

Each application or filing made under this section shall include the social security number(s) of the applicant in accordance with Section 93-11-64.
