Renewal applications received after expiration but before the last day of the month following expiration are subject to the $15 late renewal fee (Rule 1200-10-01-.10). Reinstatement of a lapsed/expired license requires the current renewal fee plus the late renewal fee (Rule 1150-02-.09(2)(a)1). Failure to complete continued-competence requirements or falsely certifying completion may result in disciplinary action.Verify with board

How compliance is checked

Licensees must document continued-competence credits and provide evidence of completion when requested by the Board during its verification process; an OT-specific documentation-retention period was not confirmed in the official sources consulted.
