The Louisiana Application for Non-Resident Ex Officio Status is an application process for individuals who are not residents of the state of Louisiana but wish to serve as an ex officio member of a public board, commission, or similar body in the state. The application is used to assess the qualifications of the applicant and provide evidence of their expertise in the area for which they are applying. There are two types of Louisiana Application for Non-Resident Ex Officio Status: Form A and Form B. Form A is used for those applicants who are qualified to serve in an ex officio capacity due to their professional experience, while Form B is used for those who are qualified due to their knowledge and expertise in a particular field. Both forms require applicants to provide detailed information about their professional background, qualifications, and areas of expertise. The applications are reviewed by the Secretary of State or the Governor's Office of Boards and Commissions, and the applicant may be required to provide additional information or clarification before their application can be approved.
