General Information Regarding License Applications
Applications are reviewed during the Board’s monthly meetings. An application must be complete to be placed on the Board’s Agenda. Once an application is approved, applicants will receive notice by email of the approval. Following Board approval, the jurisprudence test is emailed or mailed to the approved applicant to complete and return to the Board. Upon receipt of the successfully completed test, the license is issued and a digital copy of the license is provided via email. New licensees receive their wall certificate via U.S. mail.
