License renewal

All licenses expire on December thirty-first of every odd-numbered year. On or before October sixteenth of every odd-numbered year, the board will send a notice of renewal and an application for renewal to each licensee at the last address provided to the board by each licensee. A completed application for renewal must be postmarked or delivered to the board's office on or before November fifteenth of the odd-numbered year. If a completed application is not postmarked or delivered to the board's office on or before November fifteenth of the odd-numbered year, the applicant must pay the late fee. If a completed application for renewal is not received by the board's office on or before December thirty-first of the odd-numbered year, the license expires, and the person may not practice social work until a new application for initial licensure is made and license is granted by the board. The board may waive the late fee or extend the expiration date for any applicant having proof of medical or other hardship rendering the applicant unable to timely file a completed application. A completed application for renewal must include: 1. Completed and signed renewal application form. 2. The license renewal fee. 3. Verification of required continuing education.
