Beginning October 1st, if a Certificate Holder has not successfully submitted an annual, semi-annual, quarterly, or monthly report, a $50 per day fine will automatically begin to accrue. The fine must be paid during the reporting submission process. Reporting fines are currently capped at $3000 ($50/per day for 60 days). If a Certificate Holder’s reporting has not been submitted before the 60 day deadline, then the Certificate of Authority will expire and be in default, resulting in the termination of any related Branch Registrations and Preneed Sales Agent Registrations. Preneed sales may not resume until a new Certificate of Authority application, new Branch Registrations, new Preneed Sales Agent Registrations, all supporting documentation/checklists, related fees, and the $3000 reporting fine have been submitted to the Board and approved.  If an Endowment Care Cemetery's reporting has not been submitted before the 60 day deadline, then the Endowment Care Cemetery ill be in default and must terminate any sales.  Sales may not resume until a new Endowment Care Cemetery Application, all supporting documents/checklists, related fees, and the $3000 reporting fine has been submitted to the Board and approved.
