12 CFR 752.7: When may an application be filed?

Except for situations in which no application is required under section 205(d) and this subpart, an application must be filed when there is a conviction by a court of competent jurisdiction for a Covered Offense by any adult or minor treated as an adult or when such person has a program entry regarding that offense. Before an application may be filed, all of the sentencing requirements associated with a conviction, or conditions imposed by the program entry, including but not limited to, imprisonment, fines, conditions of rehabilitation, and probation requirements, must be completed, and the case must be considered final by the procedures of the applicable jurisdiction. The NCUA's application forms as well as additional information concerning section 205(d) can be accessed on the NCUA's website.
