How to Renew a Lapsed License
If you do not renew by the expiration date, your license will lapse. It is illegal for you to hold yourself out to the public as having an active license while your license is lapsed.
You may renew a license late for a period of one year after the expiration date by submitting a renewal application online and paying a late fee. If you renew late, your CE will be audited. However, if the license has been lapsed for more than one year, you must reapply as a new applicant or by reciprocity. |
