What is the status of a certificate holder on inactive status?

A certificate holder on inactive status is not allowed to engage in practice for compensation. This means that while they may maintain their certification, they cannot partake in any professional activities that involve receiving payment or compensation for their services. Being on inactive status essentially puts a hold on their ability to practice as a fiduciary, ensuring that they do not conduct any activities that would require them to be actively licensed.

The restrictions associated with inactive status help to protect the public and maintain the integrity of the profession, ensuring that only those who are fully qualified and up-to-date with their training and licensure can engage in compensated practice. It is critical for fiduciaries to comply with these regulations, as operating outside of them could lead to legal issues or disciplinary action.
