OAR 584-050-0040
Expiration and Continued Use of Expired Licenses and Registrations
(1)
A license, certificate or registration expires on the date posted on the license or registration unless an application for renewal or upgrade to the next license is received by the Commission prior to that expiration date. If a license or registration expires, reinstatement requirements, including possible late fees must be met for further licensure, certification or registration.(2)
In spite of the expiration date, a license, certificate or registration identified in subsection (1) continues to be valid for a 120 day grace period after the date of expiration only for purposes of ORS 342.173 (Effect of employing certain persons) so long as the application and fee for renewal have been received by the TSPC office on or before the date of expiration of the license.(a)
Late applications will receive a grace period that does not exceed the amount of time the educator would have had if the application and fee had been received prior to the expiration date on the license, certificate or registration. (See subsection (3) below.)(b)
The period the license, certificate or registration was expired will show in the Commission’s records. The next license, certificate or registration will be issued from the date the application and fees were received if received after the expiration date on the license, certificate or registration.(3)
Unless an application for renewal and fee are received prior to the expiration date on the license, certificate or registration subject to this rule, the educator is not eligible to continue employment under the license or registration.(a)
If the application and full fee are received following the expiration date on a renewable license, then the educator becomes eligible to work on the expired license upon posting of the fee and activation of the grace period on the TSPC web site through the 120th day following the expiration of the license;(b)
If an application for renewal is late, an applicant may have to pay for an expedited license, certificate or renewal if there is insufficient time to issue the license, certificate or renewal before the 120 day grace period expires.
