A person who fails to renew their license within the five years after its expiration may not renew it, and it may not be restored, reissued, or reinstated thereafter, but that person may apply for and obtain a new license if they meet all of the following requirements:
(a) Have not committed any acts or crimes constituting grounds for denial of licensure under Division 1.5 (commencing with Section 475).
(b) Take and pass the examination or examinations, if any, that would be required of them if an initial application for licensure was being made, or otherwise establishes to the satisfaction of the board that, with due regard for the public interest, they are qualified to practice as a speech-language pathologist or audiologist, as the case may be.
(c) Pays all of the fees that would be required if an initial application for licensure was being made. In addition, the board may charge the applicant a fee to cover the actual costs of any examination that it may administer.
