18VAC130-20-120. Procedures for renewal.
A. The board will send a renewal notice to the licensee and certificate holder. The board will send a renewal notice to the registered firm. Failure to receive the renewal notice does not relieve the licensee, certificate holder, or registrant of the obligation to renew.
B. Prior to the expiration date shown on the license or registration, each licensee, certificate holder, or registrant desiring to renew the license or registration must return to the board the appropriate renewal and registry fees as outlined in 18VAC130-20-130.
C. The date on which the renewal and registry fees are received by the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation or its agent will determine whether the licensee, certificate holder, or registrant is eligible for renewal. If either the renewal application form or renewal fee, including the registry fee, is not received by the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation or its agent within 30 days of the expiration date, the licensee, certificate holder, or registrant must reinstate the license, certificate, or registration by meeting all requirements listed in 18VAC130-20-110 and pay a reinstatement fee as specified in 18VAC130-20-130. One year after the expiration date on the license, certificate, or registration, reinstatement is no longer possible. To resume practice, the former licensee, certificate holder, or registrant must reapply for licensure as a new applicant, meeting current education, examination, and experience requirements.
