2015 Connecticut General Statutes
Title 20 - Professional and Occupational Licensing, Certification, Title Protection and Registration. Examining Boards
Chapter 376a - Occupational Therapists
Section 20-74h - License renewed.

Licenses issued under this chapter shall be subject to renewal once every two years and shall expire unless renewed in the manner prescribed by regulation upon the payment of two times the professional services fee payable to the State Treasurer for class B as defined in section 33-182l, plus five dollars. The department shall notify any person or entity that fails to comply with the provisions of this section that the person’s or entity’s license shall become void ninety days after the time for its renewal unless it is so renewed. Any such license shall become void upon the expiration of such ninety-day period. The commissioner shall establish additional requirements for licensure renewal which provide evidence of continued competency. The holder of an expired license may apply for and obtain a valid license only upon compliance with all relevant requirements for issuance of a new license. A suspended license is subject to expiration and may be renewed as provided in this section, but such renewal shall not entitle the licensee, while the license remains suspended and until it is reinstated, to engage in the licensed activity, or in any other conduct or activity in violation of the order or judgment by which the license was suspended. If a license revoked on disciplinary grounds is reinstated, the licensee, as a condition of reinstatement, shall pay the renewal fee.
