Any applicant from a state with less stringent requirements than those of Delaware, shall submit a notarized statement from each current or previous employer testifying to work experience in the field for which the applicant is seeking a license in Delaware. Such experience shall have been obtained in the State where the applicant is currently licensed for a period of 1 continuous year of the 5 years immediately preceding the making of application. Unlicensed practice within the State of Delaware shall not qualify as valid work experience. If the applicant cannot obtain a notarized statement, the applicant shall submit a letter of explanation as to why an affidavit could not be obtained and alternative documentation of experience, such as tax records, acceptable to the Board.
