Psychology License from Arizona to Nebraska: Does It Transfer? (2026)

A psychology license transfers from Arizona to Nebraska by endorsement — there is no automatic reciprocity, but you do not start over. Apply to the Nebraska Board of Psychology (DHHS Division of Public Health, Licensure Unit), verify your Arizona license, and meet Nebraska's endorsement requirements. EPPP passing score transfers (not retaken) — submit the official Professional Examination Service score report or official verification from the board that administered it; a minimum scaled score of 500 applies, and the EPPP is waived outright for ABPP diplomates. Every applicant, including reciprocity applicants, must still pass the open-book Nebraska jurisprudence examination with a minimum score of 80%.

No — the EPPP is passed once and your score is verified rather than retaken.

No. PSYPACT never transfers a license, including between two participating states. It authorizes telepsychology into Nebraska (APIT) and in-person practice there for up to 30 days a year (TAP) while your license stays in Arizona. Relocating to Nebraska requires licensure by endorsement from the Nebraska Board of Psychology (DHHS Division of Public Health, Licensure Unit) like any other applicant.

While your Arizona license remains active and is your home-state license, a PSYPACT authorization can cover Nebraska clients by telepsychology, and a TAP covers up to 30 days a year of in-person work there. Those are the compact's limits, and they end when Arizona stops being your licensed home state — they are a bridge during a transition, not a substitute for the Nebraska license.
