[What to know about your license](https://info.calbar.ca.gov/knowledge/en/enrollment-guide?hsLang=en#what-to-know-about-your-license) # Your responsibility related to your attorney record The information you provide in the Attorney Registration Information section of your New Licensee Registration and Attorney Oath form will become part of your licensee record. **Note:** Once your bar number is assigned, you are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of the information in your attorney record. Any changes to your licensee record must be reported within 30 days through your online My State Bar Profile. You are required to report and verify the following information: - Name; - A nonpublic email address to be used for State Bar communications; - Office address or, if no office is maintained, an address to be used for State Bar purposes; - Office telephone number or, if no office is maintained, a telephone to be used for State Bar purposes; - A professional website, if one is maintained; - Practice sector; - Law firm size; - trust account information; - Any other jurisdictions in which the licensee is admitted and the date(s) of admission. Additionally, you are required to verify your attorney record information by March 30 of each year during the annual license renewal.  **Note:** If you did not provide a public email address on your New Licensee Registration and Attorney Oath form and you do not register your My State Bar Profile to provide an email address for State Bar communications, you may miss important notices and reminders from the State Bar regarding your State Bar licensing requirements, including notice that payment of annual fees is due. As such, please ensure you register online for your My State Bar Profile. As a first-time user you will require a personal access code to register your online profile. Your access code will be provided with your first mailed annual fees notice. However, after your bar number has been assigned, you may contact us at 888-800-3400 to obtain your access code. Please note, [Business and Professions Code section 30](https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/codes_displaySection.xhtml?sectionNum=30.&nodeTreePath=1&lawCode=BPC) requires that each attorney provide their Social Security number to the State Bar. This information is obtained from your application form, and the State Bar is required, in turn, to furnish it to the Franchise Tax Board. This information is not available to the public.  Have any questions?
