This legislation, titled the "Veteran and Spouse Licensing Flexibility Act of 2025," aims to facilitate the portability of professional licenses for veterans and their spouses. It mandates that if a veteran or their spouse holds a valid professional license and relocates to a different state within 36 months of the veteran's discharge or release, their existing license shall be considered valid for practice in the new state. This provision is contingent upon the submission of a comprehensive application to the new state's licensing authority. The required application includes a copy of the veteran's DD Form 214, a marriage certificate and military orders if the applicant is a spouse, and a notarized affidavit affirming good standing and compliance with the new state's requirements. If a licensing authority cannot process an application within 30 days, it must issue a temporary license conferring the same rights as a permanent one. States retain the ability to conduct background checks, and a "covered license" is defined as one in good standing, not revoked, and not under investigation for unprofessional conduct.
