Pursuant to Arizona Administrative Code R20-4-104, the Superintendent has the discretion to accept alternative application forms, but it does not limit the Superintendent’s power to require additional information necessary to complete an application.
In 2009, Arizona joined with CSBS and AARMR to bring greater efficiencies and coordination to the regulation of non-depository financial service providers though the automation and streamlining of state licensing and the sharing of information across states.  Arizona’s forms can be found by accessing the NMLS Resource Center for state Licensing requirements.
