(A) During the seven (7) year period preceding the date of the application for licensing and registration; or
(B) At any time preceding the date of application, if the felony involved an act of fraud, dishonesty, or a breach of trust or money laundering. Any pardon of a conviction shall not be a conviction for the purposes of this paragraph.

(iv) The applicant has completed the prelicensing education requirement pursuant to W.S. 40-14-644;

A determination that an individual has not shown financial responsibility shall include, but not be limited to:
(i) Having any outstanding judgment, except a judgment solely as a result of medical expenses;
(ii) Having any outstanding tax lien or other government lien;
(iii) Having any foreclosure within the past three (3) years;
(iv) Having a pattern of seriously delinquent accounts within the past three (3) years.
(c) Upon written request, an applicant is entitled to a hearing on the question of his qualifications for a license if:
(i) The administrator has notified the applicant in writing that his application has been denied, or objections to the application have been filed with the administrator;
(ii) The administrator has not issued a license within sixty (60) days after a complete application for the license was filed.

Notwithstanding any provision under the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act, a request for hearing shall not be made more than fifteen (15) days after the applicant has received notification by certified mail that the application has been denied and stating in substance the administrator's finding supporting denial of the application or that objections have been filed and the substance thereof.
