Additional info -- the FCC is not keeping track of code and no code Techs

If you take the tech exam with code be sure to get a certificate of
successful completion CSCE for the code test
So when you go to take the general or extra test you will have proof of
passing the code.

Ask your VE how long the cerificate is good for (may be one year)

Now I am confused. If I take the tech, I can only upgrade to General is I
do it
within 1 year? Otherwise, I have to retake the tech?

You can take the tech test and the general test and the extra test
together -- all in one test session if you want.

If you get a Tech license first (code or no code) -- you can take the
general test and extra any time - no time limit.

However if you obtained a no-code Tech license -- you have to pass the
code test when going for general or extra

If you pass the code test but fail the written test -- you have code
credit for a year. I think this is right, if not will get back to you
here.

Let us know your city and state -- we will try to put you in touch with an
examiner with a telephone number -- you can clear this all up with a
single phone call.
