Board rule 13CSR1 §13-1-11: a lapsed license may be renewed within one year of expiration with a late renewal fee; after one year, the original licensure requirements apply. The prior fee rule (effective through 7/1/2025) set the late renewal fee at $100; the current late fee was not located.Verify with board

How compliance is checked

The rule defines 'audit' as the Board's selection of licensees for verification of CE/competency completion; licensees certify at renewal and provide documentation on request. A 2023 legislative performance audit (PERD) reported the Board randomly audits 7% of renewing OTs and 7% of OTAs.
