OAR 833-050-0131: Associate Registration Renewal

(1) A registered associate must renew registration annually each year following initial registration. Annual renewal is due by the first day of the month of initial registration to be considered timely. (2) Registration renewal requires the registered associate to submit an application for registration renewal in a form and manner prescribed by the Board, which must include the renewal fee, complete and truthful responses to all of the questions regarding character and fitness, clinical supervised experience, registrant’s current information and status, and any other questions. (3) Late Renewal. A registered associate may renew a registration after the first day of the month but within the renewal month by, in addition to completing the requirement in section (2) above, submitting to the Board the required delinquent fee. If these are not timely submitted, then the associate registration will be expired. Expired registered associates must reapply pursuant to OAR 833-020-0071 in order to practice as a registered associate or be considered for licensure. (4) Renewal may be denied if any of the conditions of the plan are not being met. (5) Registered associates must renew registration annually until being granted a license or the expiration or denial of associate registration. (6) When a former registered associate who has allowed their registration to lapse continues to practice in violation of ORS 675.825(1)(d), the Board may treat each 90-day increment of unlicensed practice (or any part thereof) as a separate violation for purposes of imposing a sanction pursuant to ORS 675.745(4).
