Answer 1

Licenses expired before September 1, 2005 may be renewed within 5 years of expiration date by paying the current license fee and a late fee of $53.00 for each license term since expiration. Failure to renew within the 5 year time will result in license cancellation and you will be required to take the written and practical exams to reinstate it.

Licenses expired after September 1, 2005 must renew within 1 year of license expiration date. Failure to renew within the year will result in license cancellation and you will be required to take the written and practical exams to be reinstated.
