Texas license renewal

Published

I renewed my Texas license and I noticed it says single state now instead of compact state. I work in GA can I still use my single state license

No, you can't.

Do you know why my license wouldn’t say compact

Did you use your TX address?

ETA: If you haven't done so, you need to call the TX BON. You should also call your travel company and notify them, and you might consider calling the facility where you work.

Yes I put Texas as my residency

Then, you definitely should contact the TX BON as only they can explain why they did this. And regardless of what your agency tells you, you can not work in GA on that license.

Best wishes.

Hello!

I'm currently experiencing the same issue- Originally got my license in TX, and now in AZ. Have you heard anything from TBON yet? Has your issue been resolved? Looking for guidance on my issue as well.

If you moved to AZ, you are not eligible for a multistate license from TX. Don't mess with Texas! If you use that license in another compact state, you may lose your license and you will be reported to all state boards. Which will mean an awkward question to answer on your license application to any other state.
