24VAC20-121-70: School license renewal required

A. Every licensed school applying for renewal shall return the following to the department in a format prescribed by the department on or before the 15th day of the month in which the current license expires:

1. A renewal application;

2. A certificate of insurance, as required under these regulations;

3. A photocopy of a current business license, if required by the locality, or a letter from the locality that indicates no business license is required;

4. National criminal records checks completed within 60 days of the application deadline for each individual providing instruction or otherwise employed by or managing the school, as required by these regulations; and

5. A fee for each license renewal application, as set forth in these regulations.

If the original surety bond is no longer in force, a new surety bond must also accompany the renewal application.

B. The department will make every effort to mail a renewal notice to the licensee outlining the procedures for renewal at least 90 days prior to the expiration of their license and to mail a follow-up reminder notice 45 days prior to the expiration of their license. Failure to receive these notices shall not relieve the licensee of the obligation to apply if a continuation of the license is desired.
