When may a CE extension be requested?

• A. Within 30 days before the end of the compliance period
• B. Within 30 days after the end of the compliance period
• C. Any time during the compliance period
• D. After the end of the compliance period

Answer: (A)

A CE extension may be requested only in a narrow window just before the compliance period ends. Specifically, you may submit the extension within 30 days prior to the end date. This timing ensures the extension is considered before the deadline passes, giving the board time to review and approve before noncompliance would occur. Requesting earlier than this window isn’t permitted because the extension is tied to the upcoming deadline, and requesting after the period ends would be too late to prevent a lapse in compliance.
