2. If a person is otherwise eligible to renew the person's certification or license, the person may renew an expired certification or license within two years from the date of expiration. To renew such expired certification or license, the person shall submit an application for renewal, pay the renewal fee, pay a delinquent renewal fee as established by the commission, and present evidence in the form prescribed by the commission of having completed the continuing education requirements for renewal specified in section 339.530. Upon a finding of extenuating circumstances, the commission may waive the payment of the delinquent fee.

An inactive certificate or license may be issued only to a person who has previously been issued a certificate or license to practice as a real estate appraiser in this state, who is no longer regularly engaged in such practice, and who does not hold himself or herself out to the public as being professionally engaged in such practice in this state. Each inactive certificate or license shall be subject to all provisions of this chapter, except as otherwise specifically provided. Each inactive certificate or license may be renewed by the commission subject to all provisions of this section and all other provisions of this chapter.
