    How Long for California to Review App and Issue License

    It would take approximately 2-4 weeks to issue a PE license number from the point that they verify you fulfilled all requirements (work, education, exam verification, bio scan, etc) asked by CA board. Here is email from CA board: License numbers are issued bi-weekly for all eligible applicants...

    Got my license number (ME TFS, CA)...some info regarding how long it takes to get license number

    Apr 2019 PE exam taker. I found that my license number has been issued on May 24th, 2019. I found this from CA license search webpage (https://search.dca.ca.gov/) because, interestingly, they seems not to notify you via email or phone when a license number is issued. This means it takes...

    How long to get a new license number from CA board?

    I don't know. I think it depends on states' requirements for FE exam waiver, which would be more or less the same (or very similar).

    I already submitted ref letters to CA Board and they accept them. Do I still need to submit Professional Reference required by NCEES?

    fyrfytr301 and NYCBruin: Thank you very much for your inputs. It is good to know that I don't have to poke others again for NCEES ref. I am trying to check it with CA board but it is very difficult to talk to the person who would answer this. It is always the voice recorder that greets me and...

    I already submitted ref letters to CA Board and they accept them. Do I still need to submit Professional Reference required by NCEES?

    Hello, Apr 2019 PE exam taker here.  As you might be already aware, both State Boards and NCEES ask for references separately.  (If you go to NCEES and click My NCEES Records (or similar), one of requirements is 5 references from PEs, which seems redundant to me especially when State Board...

    Applicants with foreign bachelor degree/ US masters?

    Undergrad degree verification by NCEES is necessary. If your foreign institute has ABEEK approved curriculum, then just get an officially sealed English transcript and you are done. If not, you will have to go through real "verification" process, which involves providing a list of courses you...

    April 2019 TFS Feedback

    Update: I passed in first try (Apr 2019, CA) I am a first taker (ME TFS) and had fun (?) to study first time since I took course works during phd degree program, which was over 10 years ago. I probably didn't study as hard as other test takers due to my full time job. Fortunately, many exam...
