Renewals

Please refer to the Renewals page of our website for information on renewal requirements as well as what paperwork and documentation to submit when applying to renew an existing, or expired, certification.

Under section 3.2 of the JBCC Rules, it is due on or before the certification expiration date. Do not wait until the day before your certification expires to submit your renewal application. We strongly recommend submitting at least 45 days before expiration to allow ample time for processing and to remedy any (potential) insufficiencies prior to your expiration date.

It is your responsibility to ensure, prior to serving any process under statewide certification, that your statewide certification remains in effect.

A person whose certification has been expired less than 90 days may renew for 1½ times the normally required renewal fee. A person whose certification has been expired more than 90 days but less than one year may renew for twice the normally required renewal fee. You are strongly urged not to submit renewals at the last minute. The sooner you submit your renewals the more time you will have to correct any errors that may have been made. If your certification is expired for a year or more, you will be required to retest. Exceptions will not be granted and fees will not be waived, refunded, or transferred. Please refer to Rule 3.2 of the JBCC Rules for more information. 

Courses must be approved before you submit your renewal, as part of the renewal process is reporting the approved courses you took.
