I was wondering if anyone applying for first-time PE Licensure in Texas has had their application denied due to battling DUI charges. I was arrested for DUI back in Oct 2020 and am still battling my charges in court. However, I am having my application reviewed by the board currently as well. I did list my prior arrest from college that was expunged as well as the DUI I am currently battling in court on my NCEES Record.
Speaking of NCEES record, would they flag your record due to past criminal activity if the board wouldn't approve one's application for licensure before transmitting it to the board?
How difficult would it be to re-enter the workforce after a 7ish year gap in employment?
