A licensee moves to a new apartment. By California rule, the licensee must report the new address to the BBC within:
a.10 days
b.30 days
c.90 days
d.14 days
Explanation
Bus. & Prof. Code §136 requires every licensee of any board within the Department of Consumer Affairs (which includes the BBC) to notify the board of a change of address of record within 30 days. The address of record is how the BBC sends renewal notices, citations, and inspection results, so timely updates protect the licensee's right to receive notice. The 30-day rule is one of the most-cited administrative requirements on the cosmetology law exam. Options A, C, and D either compress or extend the window incorrectly; only 30 days is the statutory standard.
