Verification of Registration Requests for Other Regulators

Registrants who are applying for registration with another regulatory body will need an Verification of Registration form or letter. This document is completed by the College and sent directly to the other regulatory body to confirm your registration status.  

The information provided by the College will include:

  • The registrant’s name and registration number
  • The date of the initial registration
  • The class of the certificate of registration, including any terms, conditions and limitations (if applicable)
  • Findings of any disciplinary actions or investigations (if applicable)
  • Other information deemed relevant.

How to Complete a Verification Request of Registration for another Regulator

Contact the Other Regulator and Request the Verification Form:

  • If you require verification of your registration with the College for another regulatory body, contact the regulatory body where you are seeking registration and request the verification of good standing form. The name of the form may vary for each regulator.
  • Note: If the regulator does not have a form for the College to complete, contact the College at info@ocswssw.org and request a letter of good standing. Your request must include the following details:
    • Your full name and registration number
    • The regulator’s contact information (name, mailing address and email)  

Complete the Verification Form and Forward it to the College:

  • Fill out the top part of the form to authorize the College to release your information to the other regulator. Forward the completed form to info@ocswssw.org.

Processing Times

Once received, the College will complete the remaining sections of the form and forward it directly to the other regulator – it will not be sent back to the registrant. Registrants will receive a confirmation email once the College has sent the verification form to the other regulator.

Please allow up to 10 business days for processing. During peak renewal periods (November-January), the processing time may be extended due to high volumes of inquiries. 

Method of Delivery

The College will send all completed In Good Standing Forms to the other regulator in electronic format. It is the responsibility of the registrant to inform the College if the other regulator requires an original (or hard copy) form, signature and official seal.
