The application must include: (a) The required registration fee, and (b) An irrevocable consent to service form appointing the Board Administrator as agent for service of process as provided in these rules, if, in an action against the applicant in a court of this state arising out of the applicant’s activities as a licensed or certified appraiser, the plaintiff cannot, in the exercise of due diligence, effect personal service upon the applicant.
