Endorsement License Procedures for CT Tech in Texas

Before applying for an endorsement license, it is essential to ensure that you meet the eligibility requirements set by the Texas Medical Board, the governing body responsible for licensing healthcare professionals in the state. To verify your eligibility, visit the Texas Medical Board's website at [www.tmb.state.tx.us](https://www.tmb.state.tx.us) and navigate to the CT Technologist Licensing section.

Once you have confirmed your eligibility, the next step is to complete the endorsement license application. The application form can be found on the Texas Medical Board's website under the 'Applications & Forms' section. Make sure to carefully fill out all the required information and submit any supporting documents as specified in the application instructions.

As part of the licensing process, all applicants are required to undergo a fingerprint-based background check. The Texas Medical Board has partnered with several vendors that offer fingerprinting services, such as Identogo, BioMetric Impressions, and Fieldprint. You can find more information and instructions on scheduling your fingerprint appointment on the Texas Medical Board's website.

To complete the endorsement license application, you will need to provide verification of your credentials. This includes verification of your education, work experience, and any certifications or licenses you currently hold. Contact the relevant institutions and licensing bodies to request the necessary verification documents, and ensure that they are sent directly to the Texas Medical Board as per their instructions.

The endorsement license application requires a non-refundable fee, which covers the processing and evaluation of your application. The current fee can be found on the Texas Medical Board's website under the 'Fees' section. Make sure to pay the fee using the approved payment methods specified on the website.

Once you have submitted your complete application, including all necessary documents and the application fee, the Texas Medical Board will review your application. The review process may take several weeks to complete. To check the status of your application, visit the Texas Medical Board's website and navigate to the 'License Verification' or 'Check Application Status' section.

Congratulations on successfully obtaining your endorsement license as a CT Tech in Texas! It is important to note that all healthcare professionals are required to renew their license periodically.
