 AN ACT to amend the education law, in relation to certificates of  resi-
   dence required of community college enrollees
 
   THE  PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM-
 BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

   Section 1. Subdivision 3 of section 6305  of  the  education  law,  as
 amended  by  section  2  of part V of chapter 57 of the laws of 2013, is
 amended to read as follows:
   3. The chief fiscal officer of each county, as defined in section 2.00
 of the local finance law, shall,  upon  application  and  submission  to
 [him]  SUCH  CHIEF  FISCAL OFFICER of satisfactory evidence IN-PERSON OR
 ELECTRONICALLY, issue to any person desiring to enroll  in  a  community
 college as a non-resident student, a certificate of residence form show-
 ing that said person is a resident of said county.  NO SUCH CHIEF FISCAL
 OFFICER SHALL REQUIRE A PERSON DESIRING TO ENROLL IN A COMMUNITY COLLEGE
 AS A NON-RESIDENT STUDENT TO DISCLOSE OR FURNISH HIS OR HER SOCIAL SECU-
 RITY  NUMBER.  If  the chief fiscal officer of a county refuses to issue
 such a certificate on the ground that the person  applying  therefor  is
 not  a resident of such county, the person applying may appeal, IN WRIT-
 ING, ELECTRONICALLY OR BY MAIL, to the chancellor of the state universi-
 ty. The chancellor of the state university, OR SUCH OFFICERS OR  EMPLOY-
 EES  THEREOF  AS  SHALL  BE  DESIGNATED  BY  THE  CHANCELLOR IN A MANNER
 AUTHORIZED BY THE STATE UNIVERSITY TRUSTEES, shall make a  determination
 after  a  hearing, upon ten days' notice to such chief fiscal officer of
 the county, and such determination shall be final  and  binding  on  the
 county.  Such  person  shall,  upon  [his] registration for each college
 year, file with the college such a certificate of residence form  issued
 not earlier than two months prior thereto, and such certificate of resi-
 dence  form  shall  be  valid  for a period of one year from the date of
 issuance. THE STATE UNIVERSITY TRUSTEES SHALL BE AUTHORIZED  TO  PROMUL-
 GATE REGULATIONS TO EFFECTUATE THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SUBDIVISION.
   § 2. This act shall take effect July 1, 2023.
 
  EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
                       [ ] is old law to be omitted.
