I passed the exam, however, I am waiting on my state to mail me forms I need to fill out and mail back before I get my certificate, so I am assuming I should hold off using the title PE until I am 100% registered? Also, how the heck do I edit my name here on EB? I definitely want to put PE after my name on here now!

 
I waited for the number.   Took several more weeks for the wall certificate.  No need to wait for that.  

 
Go to your account info. There should be a tab display name

Go to your account settings and click on the display name tab. There's not more to it than that

Hmm strange. last two options do not exist in my account. Maybe when i get supporting membership it will be there.
Ah. Possibly. I didn't try to change it until after I supported.

I would not use "PE" on anything until your state issues you a number.

Some states require additional steps, payments, forms, etc. before you are licensed. 

Just because you passed the exam, you are not a PE until the state recognizes you as such.

Congrats on passing, the rest is just paperwork.
