Some certification transactions require payment of a $20 processing fee. Please note, even if you are requesting multiple transactions, the maximum fee required for one application is $20 unless you are requesting a notarized certificate copy, which requires a separate $20 fee.

Applicants who are not employed by a Georgia LUA must pay a $20 fee for all transactions EXCEPT FOR:

• Issuance of a Pre-Service certificate
• Issuance of an initial certificate based on completion of a Georgia educator preparation program
• Name change

Applicants who are employed by a Georgia LUA must pay a $20 fee for the following transactions ONLY:

• Issuance of a Non-Renewable Professional certificate
• Issuance of a Supplemental Induction certificate
• Issuance of a Waiver certificate
• Notarized certificate copy

Please note: If you are requesting a notarized certificate copy in addition to another transaction requiring a fee, you must pay a total of $40.

A fee may be paid with a credit or debit card through your MyPSC account. If you pay a fee when it is not required, a refund will be issued to the credit card used to make the payment. This can take up to three weeks, so please be patient and monitor your account.
