FL PE via Endorsment

[GCracker]

Yes, I contacted them and basically got the same thing. I'm still holding out hope that my letter saying they will review my app is in the mail. But, the website isn't showing anything new as completed. I'm going to miss out on a lot of work in FL that would've helped my new firm take off!

I emailed Amanda today to see if I may receive more insight than what Frances provided. She hasn't responded back.

I wonder how many endorsment applications they get a month? I cant imagine its anything overwhelming.. Strange though, the two people who I have talked to about the process, both told me that they received a card in the mail giving them updates about their application and where it is in the process. They both also told me they received a card a couple days after they filed their application. Its been over a month and I have yet to see any kind of card.

So if we have to wait until May now, we are probably looking at getting a PE number in July? Incredible

And some people think it would be a good idea to let the Gov't. take over the health care system. LMAO!

I'm a newly licenced PE in FL (by exam), get used to the idea of not having a clue as to where you stand, it's how they operate. I haven't figured out yet whether they're just inept or completely overwhelmed and understaffed. Doesn't really matter I guess, the end result is the same, poor customer service.

 

[JasonT33]

Yep you got that right.

As of Monday, I have sent out a few emails and left a couple messages... No one has bother to respond to any of my inquiries there.

I guess I am at the mercy of the State Board... not much I can do... so frustrating :reading:

I can empathize. I was in "FL Board Limbo" for about a week right before the deadline to apply for last October's exam. They had sent me a card stating that they didn't have my FE confirmation from GA where I took that exam, and also said they were missing one of my references. I verified that everyone had sent everything in to the FL board but they couldn't tell me whether my package was complete or not. Even at 4:30pm the day of the deadline they couldn't tell me if my package was complete or not. I was finally able to get someone on the phone but they said they were so busy that they couldn't help me, I was pissed! Super duper mega pissed! They're incredibly understaffed at the very least, and possibly totally incompetent. I haven't figured out which yet, but like I said above, it doesn't really matter does it? We can't get good timely information out of them regardless.

 

[GCracker]

I didn't hear anything yesterday, no card in the mail, and no update on the website. Guess I have to wait for May.

 

[JasonT33]

Yep nothing as of today... :17:

Hey Cracker any new info about your endorsment application? I just found out that a coworker of mine who submitted his endorsment application 5 days after mine in mid February just checked the website this morning and he was assigned a PE number. Thats great, but my application status remains the same as "work in progress." I dont get it. I have emailed the board 3x now in the past week and a half, one of which was an email today inquiring about how his application was processed before mine even though he submitted almost a week later. I havent received any response from them.

UGH

My application still has the same info beside it that it had in February. I know they have the info, they just haven't reviewed it yet. :multiplespotting:

I am posting this so you can be aware: Do not e-mail/call/contact the Board. It is useless. Be patient. There is nothing else you can do. After you see your license number on the web then, within a week or so, they will send you a letter saying "Congratulations....yadah yadah...blah...blah...blah...you should be receiveing the paper work(Certificate,wallet card, etc.) in 6 to 8 weeks. I got mine last week(FWIW...I put them in the appropiate place next to the toilet paper rolls). It is huge. 11 x 17 I think. It took 7.5 weeks. As you can see there is no sense on rush them. They don't care. Think that you are waiting the results and you are going to be surprised you get them in less than 8 weeks.

I understand, but I am just curious as to how the heck my friend had his application reviewed and was given a PE number in less than a month... nevermind the fact that he submitted his application a week later than I did.

I am not contacting the board anymore.. 3x in the past week in a half was enough and if they are going to sit there and ignore everything, so be it. :multiplespotting:

I sent them many e-mails and they only replied once. Only once.

I live in Tallahassee and I couldn't get a person to talk to me when I showed up there IN PERSON most of the time. Only twice did someone meet with me to discuss my issues when I visited the office on Callaway Road. :multiplespotting:

You haven't seen my smilie for the state board ??

I hope that helps take a 'little' edge of waiting for a response. :multiplespotting:
