Question: How long does it take to complete the application process?

Answer: The application process varies based on how quickly the required forms are submitted to the Board office. It is suggested that the applicant contact the Board office on a monthly basis to check on the status of his/her application. Once the application is complete, it will be listed on the next month's Board meeting agenda. If approved for licensure, the applicant is advised in writing of the pro-rated license fee. When the Board office receives the license fee, a license is issued.
