How to prepare your licence renewal application
If your certification is valid:
· Fill out the renewal forms you receive in the mail and ensure all pre-populated information on the form is correct.
· To update your form with new address or employer information, put a strike through the old address and employer name that is pre-populated on the form and write your new address on the form.
· If you have a new employer or new insurance provider, a new proof of insurance showing adequate coverage should accompany your application.
· If your address has changed and you do not provide an updated address, you may not receive your licence renewal package the following year.
· If your email address or phone number has changed, please update those as well.
· Include a $100 cheque addressed to the Minister of Finance. DO NOT send cheques separately. Your renewal package needs to be accompanied by a cheque.
If your certification has expired:
· Rewrite your courses or recertify using Continuing Education Credits (CEC) (required for the aerial and integrated pest management category only).
· Fill out the renewal forms you received in the mail and ensure all pre-populated information on the form is correct.
· Attach a copy of your Final Grade Report for updated courses, or the CEC re-certification issued by Assiniboine College. If your certification is from another province, attach a copy of transcripts or certificates from the authorized institution (e.g., a copy of a Statement of Achievement from Saskatchewan Polytechnic or a Certificate from Lakeland College, Alberta). Also, attach a copy of your licence if the certification is from a province that issues a licence.
· To update your form with new address or employer information, put a strike through the old address and employer name that is pre-populated on the form and write your new address on the form.
