Concerns professional licensing and application fees for spouse or dependent of active duty member of United States Armed Forces.
New Jersey Assembly Bill A4150 would waive application fees and streamline professional licensing for spouses of active-duty U.S. military members relocated to New Jersey due to military orders. The bill requires licensing boards to issue temporary licenses to eligible spouses using their existing out-of-state license (if equivalent standards apply) or through reciprocity, without requiring full state-specific exams or additional fees. To qualify, applicants must hold a current license in another jurisdiction, have practiced for at least two of the past five years (counting military service time), maintain a clean disciplinary record, and pass a background check. This applies specifically to spouses who moved permanently with their service member, not to dependents or other family members.
