Veterans (Military Families · Licensing)

HB 4924 amends Michigan's Occupational Code (MCL 339.217) to allow certain individuals to obtain a Michigan license or registration without taking an exam. It directly affects military members, veterans, their dependents, and licensed professionals moving to Michigan who hold valid out-of-state licenses in good standing for at least one year. Key provisions require applicants to prove they met the original state's education/work requirements, passed any required exams, and have no pending disciplinary actions or investigations in other states. The bill does not override existing temporary or courtesy licensing options and includes safeguards if federal guidelines would be violated.
