Ca.BRN said that they mailed my Verification letter to Washington state DOH last May 4(reciprocity)....Until now...Washington DOH didn't received any....called both agencies several times...same story...which agency should i believe?Heard from my classmate from Kaplan that he received his verification just last week here in Washington,too....funny thing too...that they can't mail only my verification...they have to wait for more mails to go....in batch...anybody has this problem before?Washington told me that California is notorious in telling people that what they did but actually they didn't yet but California told me several times, they did already last May 4.HAVE TO WAIT FOR 30 DAYS TO RESEND AGAIN THE VERIFICATION........that's unfair:confused::confused::down:

Very similar experience I had endorsing my license to Cali also. They waited 2 months to finally send me a letter stating they never received my license verification from my state even after I verified that my state board indeed had, and had the proof. Then they said that I had not submitted a 75.00 initial licensing fee in my application. I send another 75 dollars to them. I also had to send another license verification again to my state board. Finally 3 months later I get the new endorsed license with a return of 75 dollars from them stating I had, get this.. over paid twice. They absolutely do not have their #@%& together at all and my state board told me this happens all the time being told the applicant never sent their license verification paper work. I think a lot of this can be attributed to the state being furloughed three fridays a month by the Gov of Calif and I went in person last year to their office and there were three people in the whole office!
thanks Newtress for the reply....thinking it might have lost through the mail.....in "BATCH" with a little grey thoughts.Called both agencies about 4 times each..."May 4------Didn't receive"...........California BRN, then...notorious:(:(
As I was saying, that's what I got from "Notorius" Cal State board too. Specifically stamped Not Receieved, and to make matters worse; my entire pile of application paperwork was sent back to me also! Like they wanted me to start from scratch again and wanted the initial license endorsement fee again when they already had my check submitted. Double money, double license verification. I sent them back the entire mess of paperwork right back to them. Then I had to sit on the phone sometimes 30 min to maybe get a live person to speak to and I got the name of the supervisor dude and addressed everything in that return packett to him. He squared everything away properly in the end. I think these state board employees must really hate their jobs. Similar thing happened years ago when I went to DMV to get a Cali drivers license. Took over a month, due to some stupid photo glitch! I'm scared to move back there but that's where my parents live. I've been gone from Cali 18 years now, and honestly it was absolutely awsome to live there when I was a teenager. Drastic change since then.
