From my understanding you need to contact your original state licensing committee since each state licensing requirements differ. I believe that some allow you to suspend it until you start working as an LA again however some require you to pay back fees so double check.
Also Clarb is an awesome way to maintain your records and well worth your time. For example I worked with an LA who had been out of the profession for many years and was asked to get his license active for reciprocity purposes and it took him months getting old contacts, employment, etc and paying fees to take make up CE hours.
Again call your local state licensing committee and contact Clarb to make sure that you are covered so that you aren’t in a mess if you decide to work as an LA in the future.
