Taking a Leave or Resigning
If you will not be working or using the title occupational therapist (OT) in Ontario after May 31, 2021, you may choose to resign your registration. Resigning your registration means you will not be able to work as an occupational therapist or use the title occupational therapist, abbreviation, or designation OT Reg. (Ont.), in Ontario, until you are re-registered with the College.
If you maintain your registration with the College while on leave, you will be required to purchase professional liability insurance, comply with all mandatory Quality Assurance requirements, and meet professional obligations.
Important
- OTs who do not complete their annual renewal or resign their registration by the May 31, 2021 deadline will receive notice that their registration will be suspended for non-payment of fees if fees are not paid within 30 days.
- A late fee applies when renewal is not completed on time.
- The College is required to publicly post all suspensions on the Public Register and employers will also be notified.
We understand COVID-19 continues to impact many aspects of our lives. If you are experiencing financial hardship because of the pandemic, please contact the registration team at
