Hello all – this is my first post on the website! My question relates to rescheduling your NTS after it expires.

My current NTS is set to expire on September 27th and I did not take the exam within the extended window period (September 10th). The NASBA website does not give me an option to apply for a new NTS until my current one expires. I thought this was odd as I cannot schedule this part since this is not an active testing window period, and my NTS is not set to expire for almost another week. I e-mailed my state board to see if they would allow me to apply for a new NTS sooner. They replied back saying that the system would not allow me to register for a new one until my current one expires on the 27th and there is nothing they can do.

Did anyone else ever have this problem or have any recommendations? I would like to apply for a new NTS sooner rather than later so I still have options to take this section in the Q4 testing window before credit for my other exams expire at the end of the year.

Unfortunately there's no way around waiting for it to expire. Its a bummer but they're pretty set in stone.
