A. Notification to Persons Not Registered. The Secretary shall:

(1) Identify to the extent possible persons who have not registered and are subject to the provisions of the Act;

(2) Send to those identified the necessary forms and instructions and a copy of the Act and regulations; and

(3) Advise the person not in compliance of the person's unlawful solicitation and note that a failure to register will result in the institution of enforcement proceedings.

B. Notice of Annual Report Filing. The Secretary shall mail each registered charitable organization a report reminder notice 30 days before the charitable organization's annual report is due. Failure to receive the reminder does not affect the organization's responsibility to timely file the annual fiscal report.

C. Substitution of Registration Form. If information asked for on the registration form is contained in any other written material, the Secretary may accept other material instead of the completed registration form.

D. Extension of Time for Filing Annual Fiscal Reports. The Secretary may grant an organization an extension of time to file its annual report. The extension may not exceed the 15th day of the 11th month after the end of the charitable organization’s fiscal year.
