I'm currently in the process of getting licensed in NJ(via Score Transfer) pending my passing of NAPLEX and MPJE. I submitted my online application with the fee as well as the supporting documents. However, I never received a fingerprint form or online request. In addition, is there a separate form to be filled out for the background check. I did receive my ATT for the NJ MPJE though. So I'm not sure why I have so many unchecked items on my list. Any insight is appreciated.

I am also in the process of getting licensed in NJ and its been a VERY slow and painful process. It took over 1.5 months to get my ATT. A month for them to update the checklist (they did most of it in 1 day so thankfully it wasn't one by one). I passed my MPJE and NAPLEX and only my MPJE is updated on the checklist (it took about 3 business day for them to do that). Still waiting on them to update that I passed the naplex (its been over 12 days now) and board approval. I am getting a little impatient now! As far as fingerprinting every time I asked them to send me the form a different representative would say something else. Finally a week after my ATT I got my fingerprint letter. The good thing is if you live in jersey and get it done there they are able to update it on your checklist quickly. Good luck!!

*** Does anyone know how long it usually takes them to give out licenses after you pass? I heard its 2 weeks, then I heard its once a month on the last business day (so I was hoping that would be today! but I didn't get anything)

Yeah, it's crazy. I have to give them a call because they've emailed me the ATT like 3 weeks ago. But nothing after that...

Do you know if the NJ injectable license has a fee? Is it only the paper application or can you submit it online? I am primarily working in a hospital and did not apply for it initially with my whole application but i'm not sure of the future and thought it might be a good idea to just get it now as well. Thanks in advance!

Does anyone know when we get the results back for the Naplex. I mean just to know if you passed or failed. Does the Board send you the mail or can you see it on the NABP website?

Hey I'm not sure as I am not at that stage of licensing. But I would assume it's a separate application with a possible fee.

Its free. All you need is the application and required documents.

I'm still waiting on board approval. How long did it take for your approval?
