A license that has ceased to exist is referred to as:

  1. Suspended

  2. Revoked

  3. Active

  4. Expired

The correct answer is: Revoked

The term used to describe a license that has ceased to exist is 'revoked.' When a license is revoked, it means that the regulatory authority has taken away a person's permission to practice, due to violations of regulations or laws governing the profession. At this point, the individual no longer holds any valid status as a licensed practitioner. In contrast, a suspended license is still technically valid but is temporarily inactive due to specific issues that may require resolution. An active license denotes that the individual has met all current requirements to practice, while an expired license indicates a lapse in renewal but may still allow for potential reinstatement under certain conditions if addressed promptly. However, once a license has been revoked, it is permanently taken away, signifying that the license has truly ceased to exist. Thus, 'revoked' is the appropriate term for a license that is no longer valid or authorized for use.
