Is there a process for removal from the registry? If so, who qualifies and what is the process?

What is the registration requirement for someone with a sexual offense who is visiting the state?

I haven’t found reference to ‘visiting’ – it seems that the person would have to notify their own jurisdiction of the travel. If in NYS longer than 14 days, likely must register as “nonresident worker” or “nonresident student” as defined by NYS SORA, Section 168-a, paragraph 14 or 15.

What is the registration requirement for someone with a sexual offense who will be moving to the state to live or to attend school?
