PROFESSIONAL LICENSURE REIMBURSEMENT
Learn about reimbursement and resources that may help eligible military spouses transfer professional licenses or certifications following a qualifying military move.
Professional Licensure Reimbursement
Helping military spouses keep their careers moving.
A PCS can create additional costs for military spouses whose careers require a professional license or certification. Eligible spouses may qualify for reimbursement of certain relicensing or recertification expenses associated with a qualifying military move.
Depending on service-specific eligibility and requirements, reimbursement may help with qualifying costs associated with transferring or obtaining required professional credentials.
Examples may include professions such as:
✓ Nursing and other licensed health professions
✓ Teaching
✓ Cosmetology
✓ Real estate
✓ Other state-regulated occupations
Current military programs may provide up to $1,000 in reimbursement for qualifying professional relicensing or recertification costs, but eligibility, covered expenses, documentation, and the application process vary by service.
Contact the Employment Program before applying for guidance on current eligibility, required documentation, and service-specific procedures.
