If a licensee's renewed license has not been issued by the expiration date, what is their status?

When a licensee's renewed license has not been issued by the expiration date, they are not authorized to practice until a new license is officially issued. This is an important aspect of maintaining professional standards and ensuring that all practitioners are operating under valid and current licensure.

Practicing without an active license can lead to various legal and professional consequences. It is essential for a nail technician, like any licensed professional, to adhere to the regulations set forth by the state licensing board. This means that once a license expires, the individual must refrain from practicing until their renewal is processed and the new license is received. This approach protects the public and the integrity of the profession.
