Deadlines/Guidelines
You are allowed up to one year before and after your certification expiration date(s) just to recertify by exam.
If you pass the exam you will be issued a new card and certificate with the same certification number as before.
If you don't pass the recertification by exam, you will be decertified and will need to certify by exam as a new applicant. If you choose to certify as a new applicant and pass, you will receive an entirely new certification number, along with a new card and certificate and new three-year recertification start date.
