To renew an unexpired license, the licensee shall, on or before the date of expiration of the license, apply for renewal on an electronic form, or other form, provided by the board, accompanied by the prescribed renewal fee. Each application form shall contain a legal verification by the applicant certifying under penalty of perjury that the information provided by the applicant is true and correct.
