Step 4: My Original Exam Application Was Returned for Correction

    This section will help you understand the process if your exam application is returned for correction.

    If my exam application is not acceptable.

    • Your application will be returned to you if it is insufficient or incomplete. You must provide any missing information, make corrections, and resubmit your application within 90 days from the date it was returned. If you do not resubmit your application to CSLB within 90 days, it becomes void. You cannot reinstate it, and you must submit a new application and processing fee if you wish to pursue a license.

    Alert symbol IMPORTANT - The application fee is a processing fee and is earned as soon as the application is received at CSLB. Whether or not the application is approved, the fee is not refundable.
