21 NCAC 57A .0206         Expired Registration, License or Certificate

(a)  Expired registrations, licenses, and certificates may be reinstated within 12 months after expiration upon payment to the Board of the renewal and late filing fees as set out in G.S. 93E-1-7, and proof of having obtained the continuing education that would have been required had the registration, license, or certificate been renewed.

(b)  If a registration, license, or certificate has been expired for more than 12 months, but less than five years, an applicant may apply for reinstatement. In order to be considered for reinstatement, the applicant shall pay the filing fee as set out in G.S. 93E-1-7 and include in the application proof that the applicant has obtained the continuing education that would have been required had the registration, license, or certificate been continuously renewed, which shall include the most recent edition of the seven hour National USPAP update, as required by the Appraiser Qualifications Board of the Appraisal Foundation. In addition, the Board shall consider whether the applicant for reinstatement has any prior or current disciplinary actions, and shall examine the applicant's fitness for registration, licensure, or certification before granting the request for reinstatement. A completed application for reinstatement shall be received by June 1 of the fifth year after the registration, license, or certificate expired or it shall not be accepted.

(c)  An application for reinstatement shall not be granted if the registration, license, or certificate has been expired for more than five years.

(d)  Reinstatement is effective on the date it is issued by the Board. It is not retroactive.

(e)  A trainee or appraiser whose registration, license, or certification has expired and who is returning from active military duty may renew his or her registration, license, or certificate when the trainee or appraiser returns from active duty without payment of a late filing fee as long as the trainee or appraiser renews the registration, license, or certificate within 180 days of when the trainee or appraiser returns from active duty. This Rule applies to an individual who is serving in the armed forces of the United States and to whom G.S. 105-249.2 grants an extension of time to file a tax return.
