Official Website

of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania

    The .gov means its official.

    Local, state, and federal government websites often end in .gov. Commonwealth of Pennsylvania government websites and email systems use "pennsylvania.gov" or "pa.gov" at the end of the address. Before sharing sensitive or personal information, make sure you're on an official state website. 

    Certificates expire June 30 of every odd-numbered year.  The board emails renewal notices 30-45 days prior to the expiration date.  Notices are emailed to the most recent email address the certificate-holder has reported to the Board.  The Postal Service does not forward licenses. Make sure that your mailing address is correct on your PALS account to avoid delays in receiving your updated license.
