  • Phase 3- Full regulatory transition for DPR (which includes all application types, enforcement integration, and data migration of legacy licenses).
  • Phase 4- Full regulatory transition for the Division of Real Estate.
  • Phase 5- Full regulatory transition for the Division of Banking.
  • Phase 6- Full regulatory transition for the Division of Financial Institutions.

Phase 2, set to be completed in the next few weeks, added all remaining Division of Professional Regulation professions with manual or paper processes, with priority on healthcare professions. This phase is only available for new applications. All 46 initial professional license applications are now available on CORE as well. The 18 new types of licenses available on CORE are listed here.

IDFPR says the public will be updated as each part of the implementation is completed. All application methods and license types will be available on the website for CORE here.
