Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 38, September 20, 2024
(a) The term of a license shall be two years.
(1) Unless renewed, a license issued by the
board shall expire at 12 midnight on the last day of the holder's birth month
during an odd year if the licensee was born in an odd year or during an even
year, if the licensee was born in an even year. The initial license fee shall
be prorated from the month of issuance based on the holder's birth month and
birth year.
(2) To renew an
unexpired license, the holder shall, before the time at which the license would
otherwise expire, apply for renewal, pay the renewal fee, and certify that the
licensee's representations on the renewal form are true, correct, and contain
no material omissions of fact, signed under penalty of perjury.
(3) The renewal application shall include a
statement specifying whether the licensee was convicted of a crime or
disciplined by another public agency during the preceding renewal period, and
whether the continuing competency requirements have been met if renewing in an
active status.
(4) For a license
that expires on or after July 1, 2010, as a condition of renewal, an applicant
for renewal not previously fingerprinted by the board, or for whom a record of
the submission of fingerprints no longer exists, is required to furnish to the
Department of Justice, as directed by the board, a full set of fingerprints for
the purpose of conducting a criminal history record check and to undergo a
state and federal level criminal offender record information search conducted
through the Department of Justice. Failure to submit a full set of fingerprints
to the Department of Justice on or before the date required for renewal of a
license is grounds for discipline by the board. It shall be certified on the
renewal form whether the fingerprints have been submitted. This requirement is
waived if the license is renewed in an inactive status, or the licensee is
actively serving in the military outside the country.
(5) An inactive license may be
renewed.
(6) Failure to provide all
of the information required by this section renders any application for renewal
incomplete and not eligible for renewal.
(b) A limited permit cannot be
renewed.
