Are there exemptions from renewal requirements for military personnel and spouses of military personnel?
Military personnel and spouses are exempt from licensure renewal provisions when they are absent from Florida because of their military duties. The licensee must provide a copy of the orders that require out-of-state service to the department’s Central Intake Unit, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-0783. Once the orders have been received and approved for exemption, the license will be placed in an inactive status with no fees required. The license will remain on inactive status for up to two renewal cycles, at which time the licensee must re-submit current orders to update the exemption. If the exemption is not updated, or the license is not renewed prior to expiration, it will become delinquent. Fees and continuing education will not be required to reactivate the license.
