If a candidate has met the education requirement and failed the practical exam, may the candidate be issued a limited permit?
No. Section 7125(c)(2) states that a “limited permit shall expire after two years, or upon notice to the applicant that the application for licensure has been denied, or ten days after notification to the applicant of failure on the professional licensing examination, whichever shall first occur.” Even if the candidate does not currently have a limited permit, failure on the practical examination prevents the department from issuing a limited permit.
