Temporary Class G pathways involve agency certification about the applicant/employee. FDACS-16013 is the agency character certification form used in that process. Follow current Division instructions for when the form must be filed with the rest of the temporary Class G materials.
Who completes and signs the certification
The licensed agency owner or manager named on the form signs. The applicant/employee’s name may appear for identification, but the notarial jurat on the reviewed form is for the agency owner or manager.
Wait to sign until you are before the notary, or on camera for an eligible remote online notarization, when the page prints that jurat.
