Has anyone had any experience trying to get license approval upon passing their PE exam in Wisconsin? I have been trying to contact their Licensing Board all week with absolutely no success.

Has anyone taken the PE in Wisconsin? If so are you having trouble getting a hold of the Wisconsin DSPS for licensing? 

Thats it.. See you all in 2024!

so you look yourself on IDFPR and see it?  I have never seen this happen before.

Had to be done, new thread as results are coming out.
