Verification of Licensure

Letter of Standing Request
Registrants may request a Letter of Standing as part of their application to a Canadian regulatory College (e.g., CMLTM, OPTMQ, NBSMLT) or other third-party organization (e.g., employer). A Letter of Standing provides information about a registrant’s registration history, professional conduct, practice hours, etc. For a comprehensive list of what is included in a Letter of Standing, please review Registration Committee Policy 19: Letter of Standing (here).

To request a VisaScreen, you need to first obtain and complete a VisaScreen form from the requesting screening body.
