Apply to multiple state with NABP

[jaehoppa]

I'm in NJ and I'm in the process of applying for NY license.
I have already sent in the state application and I'm about to apply on the NABP website.
It costs $350 per state and additional $50 per each additional state.
I may, in far future, obtain CA license..maybe several years from now.
My question is, to save money, can I apply to both NY and CA now on NABP (instead of paying $350 + $350 later) and apply to CA state several years down the road when I do decide to obtain CA license?

CA doesn't do reciprocated licenses, so no.

Q1: I passed the NAPLEX already and I am licensed in another state, how can
I reciprocate my license?
A: California law does not allow for reciprocity. You are required, at least, to
take and pass both the NAPLEX and CPJE on or after January 1, 2004.

i took and passed naplex 3 years ago and i know that i have to take the cpje. my question is do i need to apply with nabp in order to take cpje?

no, you register with the CA BOP and have your NAPLEX score transferred to them. After they review your application, they will send you your ATT for the CPJE. There are a bunch of things various agencies need to complete for you, so I would start sooner as opposed to later. I imagine if you are licensed in another state, you won't be able to sit for at least 2 months.

do these things first as they take the longest:
FINGERPRINTS (card sent from the BOP to you) - https://www.dca.ca.gov/webapps/pharmacy/pubs_request.php#fp_card
PRACTITIONER SELF-QUERY REPORT - (3rd party background check, don't open the report once they mail it to you; you'll need to include it with your initial application) https://www.npdb-hipdb.hrsa.gov/ext/RulesOfBehaviorSQ.jsp?SUBJECT_TYPE=I

do these soon after:
OFFICIAL TRANSCRIPT
DOCUMENTATION OF INTERN HOURS
VERIFICATION OF LICENSE IN ANOTHER STATE

there might be others so review the pharmacist application check-list
