Business & LicensingQuestion 1460 of 1632

A newly formed corporation seeks a license. Which personnel information must be reported to the CSLB?

a.The qualifying individual only, since the license follows the qualifier
b.The officers and directors only, with the qualifier reported separately later
c.Every person the corporation employs on its construction projects
d.The officers, directors, and qualifying individual, as personnel of record

Explanation

B&P §7065 requires a corporate applicant to report its officers, directors, and qualifying individual; these become the personnel of record, and §7083 requires changes among them to be reported to the Registrar. (a) is the misconception that the qualifier is the license — the qualifier is one of several reportable persons. (b) splits a single disclosure into two steps the statute does not contemplate. (c) over-reads the duty: ordinary employees are not personnel of record, which is why a new hire on a crew triggers no CSLB filing.

Law Reference: B&P Code §7065 / §7083
