Frequently asked questions

Renewal questions

When should renewal begin?

Credential holders should begin before expiry so there is time to complete missing education, resolve changes and supply evidence.

Does renewal happen automatically?

No. Renewal requires an application, declarations, fee and any required continuing-education or audit evidence.

What if a licence or insurance status changes?

Material changes relevant to the credential must be disclosed. RSM will determine credential implications within its authority.

What happens after expiry?

The final policy will define late renewal, reinstatement and when a full new application is required.

Renewal decisions

Confirm continued eligibility, not merely payment before expiry.

Renewal should verify continuing-education declarations, material changes, conduct status and any selected audit evidence. RSM should notify holders in advance but keep responsibility for timely renewal with the holder. Public verification records must update promptly after the decision.

Late renewal, inactive status, reinstatement and expiry need clear definitions. Communications must not suggest that a credential remains current after its expiry date. Where a holder takes leave or changes roles, an inactive or retired status may be more accurate if the final policy defines its meaning.

  • Verify ongoing requirements.
  • Disclose material changes.
  • Apply expiry rules consistently.
  • Update public status promptly.
