Michigan gives a 60-day grace period after expiration; if the renewal fee is not paid by midnight on the 60th day the license is lapsed (effective as of the expiration date). Practicing without a valid license is a felony under the Public Health Code and may result in legal proceedings and discipline.Verify with board

How compliance is checked

Submission of the renewal application is the licensee's certification of CE compliance; the board may require evidence at any time and records must be maintained for 5 years from the renewal submission date.
