148.6423 LICENSURE RENEWAL.

Subdivision 1.Renewal requirements.

To be eligible for licensure renewal, a licensee must:

(1) submit a completed and signed application for licensure renewal on forms provided by the board, including:

(i) updated personal information, including the renewal applicant's name, business address and business telephone number, primary email address, and home or mobile telephone number;

(ii) information regarding any change to the renewal applicant's responses to section 148.6420, subdivision 1, paragraph (a), clause (1), items (v) to (ix);

(iii) a signed statement affirming that the information in the renewal application is true and correct to the best of the applicant's knowledge and belief; and

(iv) any legal information required under chapter 214;

(2) submit the renewal fee required under section 148.6445;

(3) if audited, submit proof of having met the continuing education requirement of section 148.6443; and

(4) submit additional information as requested by the board to clarify information presented in the renewal application. The information must be submitted within 30 calendar days of the board's request.

Subd. 1a.License period.

Following the initial license period, a license period begins on the first day of the month after the licensee's birth month and must be renewed biennially.

Subd. 2.Renewal deadline.

(a) Except as provided in paragraph (c), licenses must be renewed every two years on or before the first day of the month after the licensee's birth month. Licensees must comply with the following procedures in paragraphs (b) to (e).

(b) Each license must state an expiration date. An application for licensure renewal must be received by the board on or before the expiration date.

(c) If the board changes the renewal schedule and the expiration date is less than two years, the fee and the continuing education contact hours to be reported at the next renewal must be prorated.

(d) An application for licensure renewal not received within the time required under paragraph (b) must be accompanied by a late fee in addition to the renewal fee specified by section 148.6445.

(e) Licensure renewals received after the expiration date must comply with the requirements of section 148.6425.

Subd. 3.Licensure renewal notice.

At least 60 days before the expiration date in subdivision 2, the board must send or transmit a renewal notice to the licensee. The notice must include information about accessing the license renewal and fee schedule. The licensee's failure to receive notice does not relieve the licensee of the obligation to meet the renewal deadline and other requirements for licensure renewal.
