Requires registering with the sex offender registry no later than five days after any change of address
This bill requires sex offenders in New York to register any change of address, internet accounts, or education/employment status with the state registry within five calendar days (reducing the previous requirement from ten days). It also mandates a $10 fee for each registration update. The law directly affects individuals subject to the state's sex offender registry, imposing stricter timelines for reporting location changes. The bill takes effect 90 days after enactment.
