Which statement best reflects the truth about practicing when a license has expired?

Explanation:
When a professional license has expired, it is no longer active and you are not legally allowed to provide podiatry services. The proper rule is that you cannot practice until you renew and the renewal is processed so your license becomes active again. Continuing to practice during an expiration is considered unlicensed practice and can lead to disciplinary consequences. Being in good standing only applies to an active license, so it does not authorize practice when the license has expired. Supervision does not substitute for an active license.
