Applying to New York PE (Civil) License

@JayKay PE @LyceeFruit PE thoughts or inputs?

At the very least you should not expect it to happen quickly. NYS has a reputation for taking way-too-long to issue licenses, especially to people out of state.

Thank you, I have heard it'd take months

I have a specific question if someone knows: the NY application (Form 1) asks about education information.. I have already verified my education with NCEES previously, do I have to request my schools for verification again?

I don't have NYS and I'm going to keep it that way for as long as possible. Not only do they take forever, they're very nit-picky.

That's better asked to the board. I would assume no but I haven't applied for NYS. Also err on the side of too much detail in the other areas of your application. A former coworker had his application denied since he wasn't specific enough about a piece of experience

Do you know how long did it take that coworker to get it (assuming he did)?

LyceeFruit PE said:

no idea, he had applied prior to coming to my company and didn't have it when he was my coworker.

but i believe it took @JayKay PE months and months to get hers from NYS and she's a NY resident.

yo @FelizENG you just went thru this, any insight?

Mine took 2.5 years for them to tell me they were giving me credit for 0 years of experience (I have 25).

Good luck.
