dont worry - trust me if u get a job in cali - 500 bucks is a very small price to pay..
u need to have license of the state in which u practice.

Hey Rashmi,
So if I have the CA letter but am going to a different state for residency, will the CA letter be still valid if i want to do fellowship in CA 3 years later? Do you know?

cali letter costs around 1200 dollars and it is not a one time headache, u need to renew it every year.
