If the information contained in any document filed with the commissioner, or his designee pursuant to this section, except for those documents which the commissioner, by rule or order, may exclude from this requirement, is or becomes inaccurate or incomplete in any material respect, the licensed person shall promptly file a correcting amendment, unless notification of the correction has been given under subsection 5 of section 409.856.
