a. No fact, circumstance, or condition exists which, if the license were reinstated, would justify its revocation or suspension;

b. The former licensee verifies that the former licensee has not engaged in the practice of marriage and family therapy in this state or any other jurisdiction, or used a title denoting marriage and family therapist since expiration of the license unless licensed by another jurisdiction. The verification must be accompanied by an affirmation that the statement is true and correct to the best knowledge and belief of the former licensee;

c. The former licensee submits to the board a completed application for reinstatement on a form provided by the board;

d. The former licensee pays the late fee specified in subsection 4 of section 111-02-04-01;

e. The former licensee includes with the application for reinstatement a letter stating the reasons for applying for reinstatement; and

f. The former licensee complies with the applicable provisions of subsections 2 and 3.

2. A former licensee whose license expired under subsection 5 of section 111-02-04-01 less than five years previous to the application for reinstatement must:

a. Submit evidence of meeting the continuing education requirements that would have applied to the former licensee if the license had not expired; and

b. Pay the late fee specified in subsection 4 of section 111-02-04-01, for each of the years between the date the license expired and the date the former licensee submits a reinstatement application.

3. A former licensee whose license expired under subsection 5 of section 111-02-04-01 five years or more before the application for reinstatement must:

a. Retake the written examination required for licensure of marriage and family therapists given by the board according to section 111-02-03-02;

b. Submit evidence of meeting the continuing education requirements that would have applied to the former licensee if the license had not expired; and

c. Pay the late fee specified in subsection 4 of section 111-02-04-01 for each of the five years immediately preceding application for reinstatement.

4. A former licensee whose license expired under subsection 5 of section 111-02-04-01 and who has actively been practicing in another state under an equivalent marriage and family license, before applying for reinstatement:

a. Shall submit evidence of meeting the continuing education requirements that would have applied to the former licensee if the license had not expired;

b. Shall pay the licensure renewal fee and an additional one-hundred-dollar reinstatement fee;

c. Shall provide documentation from the marriage and family therapy licensure board of the former licensee's current state of licensure to demonstrate the former licensee's license is current and in good standing; and

d. May not have any pending or unresolved board investigations or complaints.

5. A former licensee who has engaged in the practice of marriage and family therapy in this state or used a title denoting marriage and family therapist since the date of expiration of the license is subject to denial of reinstatement or disciplinary action at the time of reinstatement. Nothing in this subsection precludes the board from seeking injunctive relief under applicable law for the unauthorized practice of marriage and family therapy or from referring the matter to criminal law enforcement officials.

6. Upon reinstatement, the licensee shall be assigned the same license number which the licensee was assigned before expiration of the license.
