Original. You can always request it back later.

California Application Status Letter
Applicants to programs in California must submit the California Application Status Letter, issued by the Medical Board of California, for scanning as one of the letters of recommendation to California programs. This letter verifies that the applicant's medical education has been reviewed and approved as meeting California's licensing requirements.
NOTE: If you plan to apply to programs in California, you need to obtain an Applicant Status Letter from the Medical Board of California, a process that will take several months.
If you do not yet have your Application Status Letter, you need to let the programs know that you are working on obtaining one. You do that by listing the letter as one of your Letters of Recommendation (LoRs) for programs in California. When you list the names of your letter writers in Documents, include "California Letter" as one of your LoRs, instead of a letter writers' name. In this case, you can assign up to three LoRs and the "California Letter" to any program located in California.
Once you get the letter from the Medical Board of California, send a copy to ERAS Support Services at ECFMG, accompanied by a completed ERAS Document Submission Form. If you do not have the final letter yet, submit a temporary document such as the receipt issued by the Medical Board of California or the ?Originals Returned? letter that is accompanied with your returned originals.
When you receive your final Application Status Letter, send a copy to ERAS Support Services at ECFMG requesting that it replace the receipt issued by the Medical Board of California or the "Originals Returned" letter. Please list "California Letter" only once in MyERAS.
NOTE: Do NOT create a new letter entry for your final letter. There should be only one (1) slot designated for the California Letter.
