Once You Receive Your National Exam Results

NSRMLS requires all graduates who have successfully completed their national exam to upload a copy of their exam results to their NSRMLS profile. Once received/reviewed their provisional license may be changed to an "Active" license and the requirement for "direct supervision" may be removed. When completed, NSRMLS will send an email notification of your license status change.

Please Remember:

You cannot work in Nova Scotia until you have received notice from NSRMLS that your application has been approved.
