regardless of payment method, through the information
requiring verification and/or updating. We have been
in contact with the pharmacy chains and worked out a
process whereby the Confirmation of Information Renewal
submitted to them by a pharmacist will suffice as notification
that a pharmacist has completed the information renewal
portion of their annual renewal. Employers will, in
turn, provide a list to the College of all of these pharmacists
when submitting payment.
Information Renewal – Step 1
• To begin your online renewal, go to www.ocpinfo.com,
click on the Member Login button(as seen above).
• Enter your User ID (your OCP number) and your
password.
The first time you login and until you change it, your
password is the last six digits of your social insurance number.
After your initial log in, we encourage you to change
your password. Once you have successfully logged in,
click on Pharmacist Renewal on the left hand side of the
screen. Once you complete and submit this first step of
your renewal, print/save a copy of your Confirmation of

returned for signature. NSF cheques are treated as late

charge.

and submitted to your employer as confirmation that
you have completed the first step of your renewal.
