The UA does not replace the TMB licensure application. You will still need to apply online through the TMB once you have completed the UA through the FSMB.\n\nTexas has a two-stage application process - Pre-Licensure/Screening and Licensing. Both stages use the License Inquiry System of Texas (LIST) which is an online communication system for messages to and from the Board and physician applicants regarding application requirements.\n\n\nStage 1 - Pre-Licensure/Screening\n\nYou will be emailed your LIST username and password the first business day after you apply. If you need to change the license type for an application already submitted, please contact Board staff through the LIST portal to request an update. If you are unable to log in, please contact Board staff at (512) 305-7030 or at Screen-CIC@tmb.state.tx.us for assistance.\n\n\nSubmit the items listed under the Lacking Reasons tab in LIST. These items are generated based on your application. Applicants can upload certain lacking item documents required for their licensure application through their LIST account. This feature can be found under the \"Forms\" tab in LIST, along with details on the document formats that can be uploaded. Applicants should log into their LIST account and review each specific lacking item to determine which documents are acceptable by upload. Currently this option is limited to non-third party documents that are not required to be submitted directly to the Board. Standard processing times apply to uploaded documents and your LIST account will be updated once an item has been reviewed/accepted.\n\n\nCheck LIST frequently to track receipt of the items and submit questions one at time. Applicants who both call and submit LIST messages or submit multiple LIST messages when they don't get an immediate response, delay staff response time and increase application processing time. All LIST questions will be answered by staff in the order received. Please allow 3-5 business days for a response.\n\n\nDuring Pre-licensure/Screening, the documentation requested is based on the standard requirements for licensure and information provided with the application. Documents are not reviewed for content until you have been determined to be Screen Complete. Your application may be returned to screening if it is determined by a Pre-Licensure Quality Review Specialist that additional information is required before the application can be assigned to a licensing analyst. Completing Stage 1 (Pre-Licensure/Screening) does not mean you are eligible for licensure. Only after you complete Stage 2 (Licensing) are you determined to be ready for licensure.\n\n\n\nAlthough the TMB is legislatively mandated to process all physician licensure applications within an average of 51 days, individual application processing time will vary based on the complexity of the application. The processing time clock begins when the applicant has submitted all initial documents and has moved to the Licensing Stage.\n\n\n\nStage 2 - Licensing\n\nYou've submitted all of the documents required for your application in Pre-Licensure/Screening.\nYour application has been assigned to a licensing analyst.\nKeep checking LIST. Your licensing analyst will post requests for additional items in the Lacking Reasons section.\n\n\nIndividual application processing time will vary based on the complexity of the application. Factors that increase the processing time may include, but are not limited to, answering \"yes\" to any of the Professionalism questions on the application or failing to follow instructions when submitting documentation. However, failing to answer application questions truthfully may be considered falsification of your application, will increase the processing time of your application, and could result in punitive action by the Board."}},{"@type":"ceterms:ConditionProfile","ceterms:name":{"en-US":"Licensure Requirements (General)"},"ceterms:description":{"en-US":"Individuals considering applying for initial licensure or relicensure as a physician assistant or reactivation of their current Inactive TX PA license should review the documents below for more information about eligibility, the application, and the required documentation and fees before submitting their applications.
