2

Prepare Your Submission

Receive information about where to mail your application, the applicable fees, and the documents or other items that need to be included.

3

Track CSLB Acceptance

Once CSLB accepts your application, continue through the next licensing requirements without losing track of important steps.

4

Complete Your Licensing Requirements

Follow the steps needed to have your license issued based on your classification, application type, and business structure.

Stay on Track Without Feeling Overwhelmed

iApplication organizes the licensing process into manageable tasks so you can clearly see what has been completed, what still needs your attention, and what to do next.
