Section 0440-01-.18 - EXPEDITED LICENSING FOR CERTAIN MILITARY PERSONNEL AND SPOUSES
Universal Citation: TN Comp Rules and Regs 0440-01-.18
Current through September 24, 2024
(1) An applicant for licensure meeting the requirements of T.C.A. § 4-3-1304(d)(1) may:
(a) Be issued a license or certificate
under the Tennessee Cosmetology Act of 1986 upon application and payment of all
fees required for issuance of a regular license or certificate of the same type
if, in the opinion of the Board, the requirements for certification or
licensure of such other state are substantially equivalent to that required in
Tennessee; or
(b) Be issued a
temporary permit as described herein if the Board determines that the
applicant's license or certificate does not meet the requirements for
substantial equivalency, but that the applicant could perform additional acts,
including - but not limited to - education, training, or experience, in order
to meet the requirements for the license or certificate to be substantially
equivalent. The Board may issue a temporary permit upon application and payment
of all fees required for issuance of a regular license or certificate of the
same type, which shall allow such person to perform services as if fully
licensed or certified for a set period of time that is determined to be
sufficient for the applicant to complete such requirements.
1. After completing those additional
requirements and providing the Board with sufficient proof thereof as may be
required, a full certificate of registration shall be issued to the applicant
with an issuance date of the date of the original issuance of the temporary
permit and an expiration date as if the full certificate of registration had
been issued at that time.
2. A
temporary permit shall be issued for a period of less than the length of a
renewal cycle for a full certificate of registration.
3. A temporary permit shall expire upon the
date set by the Board and shall not be subject to renewal except through the
completion of the requirements for substantial equivalency as required by the
Board or by an extension of time granted for good cause by the Board.
4. Should an extension to a temporary permit
cause the permit to be in effect longer than the renewal cycle of a full
certificate of registration, the holder of the temporary permit shall file a
renewal application with such documentation and fees, including completion of
continuing education, as are required by the Board for all other renewals of a
full certificate of registration of the same type.
Authority: T.C.A. §§ 4-3-1304(d) and 62-4-105(e).
