Overview 
Stipulates additional required information agencies must share when an applicant obtains a 
license application. 
History 
Current information that an agency must provide to an applicant when an applicant obtains 
a license application is a list of necessary steps for obtaining a license, the applicable licensing 
time frames and the name and phone number of an agency contact the applicant can contact 
for assistance during the application process (A.R.S. § 41-1079). 
Statute defines license as any agency permit, certificate, approval, registration, charter or 
similar form of authorization that is required by law and that is issued by an agency for the 
purposes of operating a business in Arizona or to an individual who provides service to 
another person where the license is necessary in performing that service (A.R.S. § 41-1080).  
Provisions 
1. Requires an agency that issues licenses to provide the following information to applicants 
when they obtain a license application: 
a) whether or not the agency accepts cash payments for licenses and fees; and 
b) whether or not the agency offers in-person meetings for the purpose of obtaining a 
license. (Sec. 1)
