(3) letters of guardianship;

(4) personal affidavit in a summary administrative proceeding; or

(5) marriage certificate.

(e) The commission will, in its discretion, after a hearing as provided in 20 AAC 05.1800 - 20 AAC 05.1850, refuse to accept an agent's actions on behalf of his or her principal if the commission finds that the agent, either intentionally or through gross negligence, supplied or assisted in supplying false information to the commission or omitted necessary or required information, forms, or fees.
