(2) The Department's valid admission slip for the specified examination and a government-issued, signature bearing photo I.D., such as a driver's license, must be presented in order to gain admission to the examination. This identification shall be acceptable in the absence of the admission slip provided the candidate's name appears on the examination admission roster that has been prepared by the Department for the specific examination. All CBT examination candidates will be required to provide two forms of signature identification, one of which must be photo bearing.

(3) If the candidate arrives at the designated testing location after the designated starting time for an examination administered by the Department, the candidate will be permitted to take the examination only after the candidate has signed a statement clearly indicating the candidate's late arrival time, and agreeing that the candidate will have only the remaining designated time in the examination to complete the examination. Any candidate who refuses to sign such a statement will be disqualified from the examination and must apply to the Department for scheduling for the next available examination. If, when the late candidate arrives, any other candidate has already finished the examination and left the examination room, the late candidate will not be permitted to sit for the examination and must apply to the Department for scheduling for the next available examination. For CBT examinations and national examinations, late candidates shall comply with the CBT-contacted vendor's or the national examination organization's policies and procedures.
