United States at the time of the submission of the application, or has declared his
intention of becoming a citizen of the United States in the form and manner prescribed
by the Commissioner of Health and Senior Services . No license granted to a noncitizen shall be valid or be renewed after six years
from the date of his declaration of intention unless he shall furnish evidence of
his actually having become a citizen. No license shall be issued to any person under the age of 18 years; to any person
who has ever been convicted of a crime involving moral turpitude; or to any person
who has been found guilty of violating the provisions of this act by a court of competent
jurisdiction or who has admitted such guilt. For the purposes of this section, each applicant for a license shall submit to the
commissioner the applicant's name, address, fingerprints and written consent for a
criminal history record background check to be performed. The commissioner is hereby authorized to exchange fingerprint data with and receive
criminal history record information from the State Bureau of Identification in the
Division of State Police and the Federal Bureau of Investigation consistent with applicable
State and federal laws, rules and regulations, for purposes of facilitating determinations
concerning licensure eligibility. The applicant shall bear the cost for the criminal history record background check,
including all costs of administering and processing the check. The Division of State Police shall promptly notify the commissioner in the event
