Frequently Asked Questions

Note: NJSP can require you to submit a new application if you fail to complete the fingerprinting and/or SORA training class within 30 days.

How do I change my active SORA license to an armed license?

1. Visit the state police website that you registered on to apply for the armed security officer certification. They will issue you an application ID number for the armed license. https://eapps.njsp.org/applicant/logon.do Send the ID number you receive tocontact@sora100.com, as proof of application. Our team request a government ID to verify your identity, then we can submit the documentation to convert your license.
2. Your photo and training results from classes previously completed with SORA100’s will remain valid; no additional class time is required if your SORA license is current. (If you do not have a current license, the state police will charge $75 for a first time SORA license and $66 for the fingerprints) SORA100 charges a $75 fee to process your armed license conversion.

Can I work as a security officer once I receive my temporary certificate from the state police?

Yes, if you received a 30-day temporary certificate, you can work as a security officer while completing your three steps. Once the 30 day period is over, you must cease working until your remaining steps are complete.
