REMINDER:

Annual Renewals are due by June 30, 2020. If you have not renewed, ATCB is offering an extension on renewing. Given the circumstances, if you need to extend your annual renewal due date, ATCB is allowing an extension- the fee is $25.00,. You will have until December 1, 2020, to pay the usual renewal fee. The extension will enable you to continue using your credentials through the extension period. Some important things to note:

  1. All extension requests and the $25.00 fee must be submitted by June 30, 2020.
  2. If you apply for an extension you can renew your credential any time before or on December 1, 2020.
  3. If you opt to not apply for the extension and do not pay your renewal fee by June 30, 2020, you must pay a $30 late fee and make the renewal payment within 30 days, or your credential becomes inactive. If your credential becomes inactive, there is a $400 fee to reinstate your standing.

This renewal extension period is only being offered because of the disruption due to the pandemic; this is only good for the 2020 credential renewal year.

If you are due to recertify your board certification this must be done by June 30, 2020. Given the circumstances, if you need to extend your recertification -the fee is $50.00, and you will have until December 1, 2020, to complete your recertification.
