Except as otherwise provided by this act, applicants for issuance or renewal of a license must satisfy all applicable requirements prior to issuance or renewal of the license.

(c) The commission may reinstate and renew the license of a licensee who has failed to comply with the requirements of subsection (b)(1) if within six months following the date of the expiration of the license, the licensee submits to the commission an application for late renewal. Such application shall be made on a form provided by the commission. Such application shall be accompanied by payment of the renewal fee prescribed by K.S.A. 58-3063, and amendments thereto, plus a late fee of $100.

(d) An application for renewal filed in compliance with the requirements of subsection (b) shall entitle the applicant to continue operating under the applicant's existing license after its specified expiration date, unless such license has been suspended or revoked and has not been reinstated or unless such license is restricted, until such time as the commission determines whether the application fulfills such requirements.
