If a candidate does not pass PCCE/PACE, there is a thirty (30) day waiting  period, from the date PCCE/PACE is taken, before the paralegal becomes eligible to re-take the exam. This form is not the application itself, but confirms retake eligibility. Pending approval of this form, applicants will receive instructions on how to submit their proper exam fees and forms. Retake request forms are reviewed by the Certifications Manager. 


The soonest this form may be submitted is thirty (30) days from the date of the most recent exam attempt. Waivers submitted sooner than thirty (30) days from the date of the most recent exam attempt will be declined. Effective October 2018, candidates are limited to three (3) exam attempts in two years (one original attempt and two retakes). 


Please contact the Certifications Manager at certifications@paralegals.org with any questions regarding the retake policies.
