That's a question best asked of CRNBC. My guess would be two years, but it's just a guess. The nuances of professional immigration are not my strong suit.

thanks
I'm pretty sure you could write as soon as you've been given authorization. There are other posts somewhere in here that talk about having written and passed and now working on visas and such. A pass is a pass, and as far as I know, there's no expiry date on passing. If there were, a lot of people who took time off to raise families and are now coming back into the workforce would be faced with writing again, and not just a refresher course.
