No. When you have successfully obtained CNPS professional liability protection, that is automatically communicated to the College. You will be able to check that it has been properly recorded by clicking the synchronization button in the renewal application form.

If you need assistance with this, please contact us. Nurses need to register with the CNPS for each designation and jurisdiction they hold registration with. The CNPS will endeavor to provide a refund at year-end, for your additional charges. 

This is different for the Supplementary Protection program, which is an additional, national offering, that is based on the calendar year and requires one application. You can learn more about the Supplementary Protection program here: www.cnps.ca/supp
