NOTICE of PSYPACT® PROPOSED RULEMAKING:

The Psychology Interjurisdictional Compact (PSYPACT) Commission has published Proposed Rules for consideration and public comment.  The Proposed Rules can be found HERE.

The proposed rules are being considered to:

  • Add a residency definition as specified in the PSYPACT Legislation (Article IV B 2 j and Article V B 2 j).
  • Provide a better understanding of the grounds on which an authorization application can be denied, or a previously issued authorization may be revoked, by providing clear grounds for denying or revoking a PSYPACT authorization.
  • Expand the appeals process to address denials and revocations separately for clarity.
  • Revise the numbering of the entire rule to appropriately align with these additions.

These Proposed Rules are open for a 60-day public comment period for stakeholders interested in providing comments.  Written comments may be submitted to the PSYPACT Commission via the PSYPACT website (https://psypact.gov/page/PublicComment). The deadline for submission of written comment(s) is October 3, 2025.
