(b) In addition to complying with Subsection (a), a license holder must annually:
(1) pay a license fee in an amount established by commission rule; and
(2) submit a report that is under oath, is in the form and medium required by the commissioner, and contains:
(A) if the license is a money transmission license, an audited unconsolidated financial statement dated as of the last day of the license holder's fiscal year that ended in the immediately preceding calendar year;

(C) documentation and certification, or any other information the commissioner reasonably requires to determine the security, net worth, permissible investments, and other requirements the license holder must satisfy and whether the license holder continues to meet the qualifications and requirements for licensure.
(c) If the department does not receive a license holder's annual license fee and complete annual report on or before the due date prescribed by the commissioner under this section, the commissioner shall notify the license holder in writing that:
(1) the license holder shall submit the report and pay the license fee not later than the 45th day after the due date prescribed by the commissioner; and
