After the 12-month period, the department shall collect the fees only in the amount provided by amendment of this act or as authorized pursuant to appropriation.

(3) Any license fee paid on an initial application is nonrefundable.

(4) The department may charge a convenience fee and collect from the applicant any additional costs associated with the method of fee payment for the license or permit fees described in this chapter, not to exceed the costs to the department.
