An expired license can be reactivated within how many years after the renewal date?

• A. Within 1 year after renewal date
• B. Within 2 years after renewal date
• C. Within 4 years after renewal date
• D. Cannot reactivate after expiration

Answer: (B)

Reactivating an expired license is allowed only within a limited window after the expiration date. In this jurisdiction, you can reactivate within two years after the renewal date. During that period you would pay the renewal and any late fees and meet any renewal requirements (like continuing education). After two years, reactivation isn’t permitted, and you’d have to go through a full licensure process to practice again, which could include additional requirements or examinations.

So, the two-year window is the valid rule. The other options don’t fit because one year is too short, four years is too long, and saying you cannot reactivate after expiration ignores the reinstatement window that exists.
