Refunds
What will the Department of Health refund?
We will refund payments exceeding the stated fee or paid incorrectly. (WAC 246-08-560)
However, we will not refund fees submitted with applications for initial credentialing,
examinations, renewal, or other fees associated with the licensing and
regulation of the profession. (WAC
246-12-340)
We will only refund overpayments of five dollars or less if you send a written request
within 13 months of the date of payment. (WAC
246-08-560).
Will my application or renewal fee be refunded if my license, certification or registration is denied or revoked?
No. We will not refund you if your application is denied or if your license, certification or registration is revoked or suspended. (WAC 246-08-560).
Will I receive the refund if both myself and my employer pay my license fee?
We will refund the second payment or the actual overpayment. We identify who issued the overpayment by reviewing the contact
information on the check, money order, or credit/debit card receipt.
If I realize that an overpayment has been made, should I stop payment on my check?
No. Stopping payment will result in a non-sufficient fund (NSF) fee. We will process a refund for the overpayment.
