DC PE reciprocity

Has anyone done it recently? It sounds like I have to complete an application with references and signatures as well if I am doing through NCEES records. Sound redundant and waste of fucking time!

Have you tried pulling up their statute for professional eng. licensing? If it's been revised rather recently, they might make reference to licensing by comity using a record. But if not mentioned, then I would try contacting a board rep. to ask. Because I agree, the whole point of having a record is to NOT have to go through all that paperwork (aside from the application itself).

Well, contact the board first. Ask them directly if they accept an NCEES Record for licensure by comity. It should be a pretty straight-forward yes or no answer.

ok quick update. I spoke with the DC board, all I need to send in the application and the fee without the signatures references and submit the NCESS records...not bad
