D.C. Mun. Regs. tit. 17, r. 17-2309
At least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of a license, the Board shall send a renewal application by first class mail to the holder of a license at the licensee's address on record with the Board.
A holder of a license shall meet all of the requirements for license renewal prior to the issuance of the renewal.
A holder of a license shall provide the Board a street address for the licensee's residence, not a post office box, and shall notify the Board in writing of any change to the home or business address within thirty (30) days of the change.
The failure of a holder of a license to receive the notice required by § 2309.1 of this section does not relieve the holder of the responsibility of renewing the license.
A holder of a license who fails to renew before the expiration date may renew the license within sixty (60) days after expiration upon paying the required late fee and submitting proof of having completed the required continuing education prior to the expiration date of the license. Upon renewal, the holder shall be deemed to have possessed a valid license during the period between the expiration of the license and its renewal.
If a licensee fails to renew his or her license within sixty (60) days after its expiration, the license shall be deemed to have lapsed on the date of expiration and the holder shall be required to apply for reinstatement of the expired license pursuant to D.C. Official Code § 47-2853.15 (2005 Repl.) and § 3308 of chapter 33 (GENERAL RULES: FUNERAL DIRECTORS, VETERINARIANS, INTERIOR DESIGNERS AND REAL ESTATE APPRAISERS) of this title and pay the required reinstatement fee. A licensee may not apply for reinstatement if the license has been expired for five (5) years or more.
The Board shall deny a renewal application if the applicant has not completed the continuing education requirements prior to the expiration date of the license.
Denial of an application for renewal for failure to complete the continuing education requirements shall require the applicant to complete the continuing education requirements prior to submitting an application for reinstatement pursuant to § 2310.
