Saint Petersburg, FL asked in Business Law for Florida

Q: How long is the qualifier responsible for the business if the business goes under?, Florida

In Florida, a business owner may not necessarily be the license holder in a construction business.

The license holder can "qualify" a company to to the contracting and in turn license the business.

You should be familiar with fs489 to be able to answer my question without needing a lot more information.
