§1479.  License issuance and renewal; appearance on documents

A.  Licenses shall be issued for a period of one year and shall expire on the last day of the month of issuance in the preceding year.  Licenses which are not renewed shall be considered to be expired and any home inspection activity which would require a license to perform which occurs after expiration of the license shall be deemed a violation of this Chapter.

B.  Any licensee who fails to timely renew his license may thereafter renew upon payment of the appropriate renewal and delinquent fees and upon filing of a renewal application.  The period for delinquent renewal of an expired license shall be limited to the six- month period immediately following the expiration date of the active license.  Failure to renew an expired license during such six-month period shall result in forfeiture of renewal rights and shall require the former licensee to apply as an initial applicant and meet all requirements of an initial applicant.

C.  Licenses shall be in a form prescribed by the board.

D.  The term "licensed home inspector" along with the license number of the inspector shall appear on all advertising, correspondence, and documents incidental to a home inspection.
