   Section  1.  Subdivision  4 of section 168-f of the correction law, as
 amended by chapter 67 of the  laws  of  2008,  is  amended  to  read  as
 follows:
   4.  Any  sex  offender  shall  register  with  the  division, OR A LAW
 ENFORCEMENT AGENCY HAVING JURISDICTION, no later than ten calendar  days
 after  any  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, employ-
 ment or residence at any institution of higher  education.  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 insti-
 tution 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.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
