I finally decided to allow my Idaho license to lapse after accepting the fact that relocation at my age is not gonna happen. I am just not gonna pick up and move and go work for somebody else. So it's not getting renewed and will go away.
I let my Tennessee license lapse a few years ago.?ÿ The Continuing Education wasn't worth the good it was doing.?ÿ I think I stamped a total of two plats with it.?ÿ I still have the wall license though, it's better looking than the Georgia license.

Back in the day, I had 3 State Licenses, and a US Mineral Survey appointment.
I let the USMS go in the late 80s, one of the state tickets (rarely used) ?ÿin the 90s, another one bites the dust @ midnight tonight, and the last one will go away at the end of this year. Maybe I can do some fishing next year!

I have been seriously considering letting Alabama go as well but as I still get the occasional call I will hold into it for at least another 2 years but I suspect it has a limited existence as well.
Retirement?
More or less...
I just re upped my PLS and PE for two more years (both Utah).?ÿ I got the first PE in Kansas the year I returned to Utah about 25 years ago.?ÿ As soon as the Utah PE was good let the Kansas go.?ÿ I knew for sure I wasn't going back.?ÿ No multi state for me.
Spent a big part of the last week finishing CE hours.?ÿ I'm not a fan!?ÿ Gotta do what you gotta do.
It's obviously all about the Benjamins and my Idaho license didn't make me any and my Alabama license does little either. I still get some survey calls but they are mostly from desparate people looking for a cheap job.
In December I renewed both the LS and PE in Georgia for what I am almost certain will be the last time.

I've threatened to let my OK license go, but when it came up last summer I re-upped it. I'll be over 60 yrs old the next time it comes up, so it is probably the last time. I prefer to formally retire it rather than to just let it expire.
I let Florida go 2 years ago because I was tired of fighting the continuing education cartel down there.?ÿ None of the other 7 are on the chopping block as they are relatively easy to keep up.
I retired my Washington state license a few years ago. If you're (or will be) 65 you can apply for retirement status which means no more registration fees, allows for limited LS activities, and, best of all, you can reactivate your license at will without retaking the exam.?ÿ Some other States require?ÿ you to retake the exam.
