The Initial Licensing Department is currently in its busy season and processing times for documents submitted for initial licensure will be extended. To ensure efficient processing, we request that you refrain from resubmitting documents and calling to check on the status of your application as this may delay the processing time.

For the most current information regarding your application, please log in to your online licensing system account and check the status of your application. See the OT Application and the PT Application pages for further details regarding accessing this area.
