Section 20 CSR 2115-2.045 - Inactive Status

Renewals shall be postmarked no later than the expiration date of the license to avoid the delinquent renewal fee as defined in rules promulgated by the committee.

(2) Each inactive licensee shall provide the committee, at the time of application for renewal of the inactive license, with a completed renewal form issued by the committee that shall contain updated information since the preceding application/renewal period.

(3) Pursuant to section 324.216, RSMo, a licensee shall not practice as a dietitian in the state of Missouri while the license is inactive.

(4) If an inactive licensee wishes to return a license to active status the licensee shall complete a renewal form and pay the renewal fee as stated in the rules promulgated by the committee.

(5) In addition to the requirements set forth in section (4) above, a licensee whose license is inactive shall be required to provide proof from the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR) that the inactive licensee has a current registration prior to returning the license to active status.
