You can also change to inactive or retired status when you submit your annual registration online. The change will not be effective until July 1, and you will still be required to complete the annual CLE requirement for the current year by June 30 if you are currently on active status.

If it is submitted after June 30, you will have to pay the registration fee and late fee based on your status as of July 1.
