Psychology License from Utah to Minnesota: Does It Transfer? (2026)

A psychology license transfers from Utah to Minnesota by endorsement — there is no automatic reciprocity, but you do not start over. Apply to the Minnesota Board of Psychology, verify your Utah license, and meet Minnesota's endorsement requirements. EPPP passing score transfers — Minn. Stat. 148.915 reciprocity does not require re-taking the national examination, and the separate mobility route (Minn. R. 7200.2035, subp. 2) treats the education, EPPP, and supervision requirements as met for a current ASPPB CPQ holder, an ABPP diplomate, or a listed health service provider in psychology (e.g. National Register); every applicant must still pass the Minnesota Professional Responsibility Examination (PRE), the state exam.

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

The Board publishes no processing-time estimate; applicants track status through the e-licensing portal. Applicants who need to practice while the application is pending can apply for a temporary permit (Minn. Stat. 148.916, subd. 1a) at least 30 days before the expected start date. — The Board publishes no processing-time estimate; applicants track status through the e-licensing portal.

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

While your Utah license remains active and is your home-state license, a PSYPACT authorization can cover Minnesota 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 Utah stops being your licensed home state — they are a bridge during a transition, not a substitute for the Minnesota license.
