You must go through cvs and do the 2 online courses as per NY BON website

thank you for the reply, you know i already have done cvs with CGFNS while registering with the state of vermont and the CGFNS have maintained my credential report online for which i paid , so do i need to go through CVS once again with CGFNS( which takes 6 -8 months) or the CGFNS can provide a credential evaluation report to new york BON ( which will be easier and fast ). Please let me know. Thak you

Cvs is different to CES but CGFNS should be able to reuse documents already received.

Each state is different. Each state also lists requirements so suggest checking state out

Ask VT BoN if you can place license on inactive status before it expires.
