A licensee who does not file a renewal application before the end of the licensure period is deemed to have allowed the license to lapse. The Department may reinstate within 2 years of expiration on payment of the renewal fee, the late renewal/reinstatement fee, and completion of required CE; after 2 consecutive lapsed years, a new application is required. Practicing on an expired license is prohibited.Verify with board

How compliance is checked
