Waiver request submitted by Jeremy Wayne Stroud, Hearing Aid Dealers Board, regarding a $1500 late fee assessed for filing his 2020 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 143 days late and a $1500 late fee assessed for filing his 2022 Tier 2.1 annual pfd 231 days late. |

Jeremy Wayne Stroud never received the forms to complete his disclosures. He found out that he needed to visit the website to complete them. Mr. Stroud volunteers as the licensing board chairman and does not receive any compensation. He thinks that a $3,000 fine for a job he is not paid for is excessive.
