The board office has transitioned to online renewals. Each Renewal Notice will be mailed at least one to two months prior to your birth month renewal date. If you would prefer a paper renewal contact the board office by phone (503) 378-5735, or oregon.blsw@state.or.us
Completed Renewal Forms must be received and accepted by the last day of your birth month renewal date, or you will be assessed the appropriate late fee. Late fees are: $200 for Active LCSWs, and $50 for CSWAs, LMSWs, RBSWs, LCSWs on Inactive or Reduced Requirements (Semi-Retired) status.
Renewal forms received after the expiration date (30 days after the birth month renewal date) will not be processed, and the license will be "expired". Once expired, LCSWs, CSWAs, LMSWs, and RBSWs will be required to submit a new application and the appropriate fees. In addition to meeting the current rules and laws in effect at the time of the new license/certificate.
It is the responsibility of each licensee or certificate holder to notify the Board of any changes to addresses or employer information. Failure to receive a renewal notice from the Board shall not constitute an excuse for failure to pay the renewal fee or to renew one's license/certificate. |
