OFFICE CLOSURE NOTICE
The LBVM office is closed on Monday, January 20th, for the MLK Holiday. Additionally, the Louisiana Governor’s Office has issued a statewide closure of all state offices on Tuesday, January 21st, due to the inclement weather. We anticipate offices hours will resume on Wednesday, January 22nd.
Upcoming Downtime Expected for License & Application Portals
The LBVM License and Application Portals will be undergoing a software system upgrade that is expected to occur in early- to mid-February ’25. During this system upgrade, both portals are expected to be unavailable for 2 to 3 weeks (possibly even longer).Therefore, please expect significant delays in the processing time for submitted applications and supplemental application material along with continuing education reviews. During this system shutdown period, the LBVM office will be unable to receive any new applications through the LBVM Application Portal and will be unable to process any supplemental documentation received from third parties (license verifications, transcripts, exam scores, etc). Additionally, the LBVM License Portal will be shut down and current licensees will not be able to submit any continuing education activity during the shutdown. During this software system upgrade, our office will also be unable to process license verification requests, license directory requests, and complaint submissions. Applicants and current licensees will receive more email notifications as the exact date for the software upgrade and system shutdown is determined, as well as updates once the system is restored and available.
Feel free to email our office with any questions about this expected system downtime to admin@lsbvm.org.
