What documentation is required if a license restoration is needed after a forfeiture lasting more than one year?

When a license has been forfeited for a period exceeding one year, specific documentation is necessary to demonstrate fitness for practice and readiness for license restoration. An official statement from an employer detailing work hours is critical in this context because it serves to validate the individual’s recent professional engagement and experience in the field, reflecting their competency and compliance with professional standards following the forfeiture.

This requirement emphasizes the importance of demonstrating ongoing professional development and integration in the workforce, which is essential for reinstating a license that has faced such significant disciplinary action. It highlights the regulatory body's intent to ensure that individuals are not only theoretically knowledgeable but also actively participating in their profession, thus safeguarding public health and safety.

In contrast, while proof of continuing education could also be relevant, it does not specifically tie to the employment status or work experience like the official statement would. Similarly, a medical exam and an annual performance review aren't typically required for license restoration under these circumstances and wouldn't directly address the need to establish recent experience in the field.
