To allow healthcare professionals the ability to focus on patient care during the COVID-19 outbreak, the Secretary of Health extended expiration dates for licenses up for renewal between April 1, 2020, and September 30, 2020. All late fees were waived during this period.
What does this mean for you?
If you took advantage of this extension, you will not be able to renew online and you must submit your renewal fee by mail.
What is the deadline to submit?
To avoid late fees and expired status, you must postmark your renewal fee no later than September 30, 2020. If your renewal fee is postmarked after September 30, 2020, your license will go into expired status and you will need to pay a late fee. Your license will remain in expired status until all applicable fees are received and processed. Please allow 10 business days for your renewal to be processed.
