What do you want to know?
I have a few specific questions.

I'm certified as an EMT in NY, which I know lets me "practice" in NJ. My car is registered in NJ, and I want to get EMT plates. Will my NY EMT card work to get me the Jersey plates?

See the wording on the DMV site, not so clear...   "Qualified emergency medical technicians may purchase EMT–A plates for $25."

So, like this. In NJ the lady from the DMV claims that I would need to do the reciprocity if I wanted the NJ plates. She sent out the application which apparently has to be mailed out so ill see when I get it, but no reason not to believe her (that the application says needs to be NJ cert.)

Well, Update on the NJ EMT plates. You do need a NJ EMT license to apply for them, So I applied online for reciprocity.

Thought you had to take national exam to get NJ EMT. No reciprocity.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

Nope. Apparently not, I thought so too

Exemptions from the New Jersey State EMT Refresher Course & Written Certification Exam
Reciprocity applicants validly certified/licensed as an “EMT” (2009 National Educational
Standards) from any state/US territory and/or the NREMT will be permitted to obtain a New Jersey
EMT certification without having to complete the refresher course or the state written examination.
All applicants must complete the verification process. Your NJ certification expiration date
will be based upon the issuance date of your state/US territory and/or NREMT certification/license.

Didn't realize NJ gave EMT plates to EMT-Bs I was under the impression it was only for EMT-Ps or ENT-As but I could be off.
