(a) The Board shall send via email an annual registration
renewal notice to each Architect. An Architect must notify the Board
in writing (email, fax, on the Board's Web site, or by U.S. mail)
each time the Architect's email address or mailing address of record
changes. The written notice of the Architect's change of address must
be submitted to the Board within thirty (30) days after the effective
date of the change of address.
(b) An Architect may renew his/her registration prior
to its specified annual expiration date by:
(1) remitting the correct fee to the Board; and
(2) providing the information or documentation requested
by the annual registration renewal notice.
(c) If an Architect fails to remit a completed registration
renewal form and the prescribed fee on or before the specified expiration
date of the Architect's registration, the Board shall impose a late
payment penalty that must be paid before the Architect's registration
may be renewed.
(d) If the Board receives official notice that an Architect
has failed to pay court ordered child support, the Board may be prohibited
from renewing the Architect's registration.
(e) If a registration is not renewed within 2 years
after the specified registration expiration date, the registration
shall be cancelled by operation of law on the two-year anniversary
of its expiration without an opportunity for a formal hearing. If
a registration is cancelled pursuant to this subsection, the registration
may not be reinstated. In order to obtain a new certificate of registration,
a person whose registration was cancelled pursuant to this subsection
must:
(1) submit an application for registration and satisfy
all requirements for registration pursuant to §1.21 of this title
(relating to Registration by Examination), including the successful
completion of the registration examination;
(2) submit an application for registration by reciprocal
transfer and satisfy all requirements for registration by reciprocal
transfer pursuant to §1.22 of this title (relating to Registration
by Reciprocal Transfer); or
(3) submit an application for registration and demonstrate
that he/she moved to another state and is currently licensed or registered
and has been in practice in the other state for at least the 2 years
immediately preceding the date of the application.
