What additional information might the commissioner require on the affidavit?

The commissioner may require additional information on the affidavit based on the department's discretion to ensure that they have all necessary details to assess the application or situation accurately. This provision allows the commissioner to adapt to varying circumstances that may arise in individual cases, ensuring that he or she has a comprehensive understanding of the broker's background, operations, or any other relevant factors that could impact their ability to conduct business responsibly. By having the flexibility to request varied information, the department can uphold regulatory standards and effectively protect the interests of consumers and the marketplace.

In this context, while the other options could also be relevant in certain situations, they are more specific and do not encompass the broader discretion the commissioner has to require additional information tailored to each case. For instance, social security numbers, bank details, and personal identification are specific pieces of information that may be pertinent in some contexts, but the overarching requirement for additional information based on discretion allows for a more dynamic regulatory process.
