Division 20 - PROCEDURE FOR CERTIFICATION OF CLINICAL SOCIAL WORK ASSOCIATES AND LICENSING OF LICENSED CLINICAL SOCIAL WORKERS
Section 877-020-0036 - Reapplication for Certificate or License

(1) Following the voluntary surrender of a certificate or license under OAR 877-020-0031(2) an individual may re-apply for licensure under the requirements in effect at the time of re-application and, if applicable, the terms of a stipulated final order in effect at the time of the re-application.

(2) If the board accepts a voluntary surrender of a certificate or license after a complaint was filed with the board against the holder while the complaint is pending, the board may issue a new certificate or license under conditions that take into account the circumstances of the surrender and may attach conditions to the certificate or license, including conditions contained in a final order if one was served in connection with the surrender. The board will not reinstate a license or certificate that has been surrendered. A person who surrenders a certificate or license may apply for a new license three years after the date the surrender was accepted by the board.

(3) If the board revokes or refuses to renew a certificate or license, other than for the holder's failure to timely apply for renewal, the former holder may reapply at the expiration of three years from the time it was revoked. The board may issue a new license upon finding the applicant is fit to practice social work and otherwise meets the requirements for licensure and may attach conditions to the certificate or license, including conditions contained in a final order if one was served in connection with the revocation.
