| (a) To renew a VSF employee license an applicant must:
(1) submit a completed application on a department-approved
form;
(2) pay the applicable fee required under §85.800;
(3) successfully pass a criminal background check;
and
(4) if the applicant for renewal has within the preceding
12-month period tested positive for drugs under §85.725, the
applicant must submit a negative drug test to the department.
(b) To renew and maintain continuous licensure, the
renewal requirements under this section must be completed prior to
the expiration of the license. A late renewal means the licensee will
have an unlicensed period from the expiration date of the expired
license to the issuance date of the renewed license. During the unlicensed
period, a person may not perform any duties of a VSF employee that
requires a license under this chapter.
(c) Non-receipt of a license renewal notice from the
department does not exempt a person from any requirements of this
chapter.
