30 Miss. Code. R. 1903-4.2 - Renewal of License
A.
Expiration Date: All licenses expire on September 30
of the second year of the initial license and all future two (2) year renewal
terms. All licenses not renewed on or before September 30 of the appropriate
year will lapse. The Board will not assume responsibility for late renewal
applications delayed or lost in the mail.
B.
Renewal Term of Two
Years: All renewals will be for a full two (2) year term beginning
October 1 and ending September 30.
C.
Notice of
Renewal: The Board will send a reminder of renewal and a renewal
application to all licensees at the latest address of record on file with the
Board. Failure to receive a renewal notice from the Board will not relieve the
license holder from the renewal requirement. It is the responsibility of the
licensee to maintain an accurate address in their file by sending promptly to
the Board a signed notice of any change of address.
D. Online renewal became available on August
1, 2008. Licensees are encouraged to renew using the online format. Renewal
windows will be available from August 1 to September 30 each renewal cycle.
Online renewal is available only to active licensees in good
standing.
E. Completed Application
for Renewal: The Board cannot act on an application for renewal until it is
complete with all the supporting documents, continuing education summary and
the renewal fee. If the licensee has never had to submit to a Criminal History
Record Information Check, renewing licensees must submit to a current
fingerprint criminal history record information check (or FBI name check)
conducted by the appropriate governmental authority or authorities within
one-hundred eighty (180) calendar days of the completed application. This
criminal history record information check must be received by the Board
directly from the appropriate governmental authority or authorities, not from
the applicant.
F.
Renewal Fee: the renewal fee covers the two (2) year
term, and must be paid in full with the renewal application and supporting
documentation and no later than the expiration date of the license.
G.
Responsibility of Licensee for
Renewal: It is the responsibility of the licensee to obtain
renewal application materials from the Board, to obtain the required approved
continuing education with verification, and to see that their license is
renewed on time. These materials are available online at the Board's website.
Failure to receive a notice of renewal does not absolve the licensee of their
responsibility to renew the license before the expiration date. Practicing
under an expired or a lapsed license is prohibited. It is, likewise, a
misdemeanor punishable by law.
H.
Inactive Renewals: Anyone returning from inactive
status must meet the continuing education requirements for the immediate two
(2) years prior to the application for renewal or reactivation of
license.
