If any sex offender submits a change of address, internet accounts with internet access providers belonging to such offender, internet identifiers that such offender uses, or his or her status of enrollment, attendance, employment or residence at any institution or higher education to a law enforcement agency having jurisdiction, the law enforcement agency shall, within five business days, forward the form to the division. The law enforcement agency shall provide a copy of the completed form to the offender and retain a copy for its records. A fee of ten dollars, as authorized by subdivision eight of section one hundred sixty-eight-b of this article, shall be submitted by the sex offender each time such offender registers any change of address or any change of his or her status of enrollment, attendance, employment or residence at any institution of higher education. Any failure or omission to submit the required fee shall not affect the acceptance by the division of the change of address or change of status.
