     I am very new to the Massage Therapy field. I am originally from Illinois, in which that is where I took my MBLEX exam. I had decided that after I took my exam and filled out the application for the Licensure, to move to Ohio. I did call Ohio state Medical Board and they told me that they would not be accepting the MBLEX till the first of the year. Now, that it is accepted in Ohio, I am still waiting for Illinois to send me my License! I have called them numerous times in regaurds to the status of my application and they say that they are still working on Novembers applications and it would be another 4-6 weeks before hearing anything. I am wanting to know what happens and what I need to do in order to transfer my license from IL to Ohio. Do I need to fill out another application and be in a waiting period like I am still in IL? What is the fee? And where can I work with a IL License while waiting(if I need to)? Thanks

I would think you should see about applying for your license in Ohio right away by getting your transcripts from your school and making application in Ohio. Most licenses are not transferable from one state to another if the state you're moving to has their own licensure requirements.

Have you asked Ohio if they would accept the Illinois license and grant you an Ohio license?
