What is Verification of Employment – Delaware Architect License?
The Verification of Employment is the Delaware Division of Professional Regulation form that backs up an architect license application with a record of employment from each employer the applicant disclosed on the online application.
It belongs to the Architect licensure process. All applications are made in DELPROS (Delaware Professional Regulation Online Services), which asks a series of questions to determine the pathway and tells the applicant which documents to submit. The agency's list of items for the pathway that includes this form asks for a Verification of Employment form from each employer you disclose, alongside an official NAAB-accredited architecture degree transcript, a licensure verification from each state or jurisdiction, and either an Architectural Experience Program (AXP) file from NCARB or a Request for Waiver of IDP form.
The Division treats employment verifications from a supervisor as an example of a third-party form. That matters for delivery: a form that needs a supervisor signature, seal or notary may have to be mailed to the Board office rather than uploaded, unless the document itself says to upload it.
The form does not replace the other items. Transcripts, licensure verifications, the AXP file and the application fee are separate requirements handled in DELPROS or sent directly to the Board office.
Who needs to file Verification of Employment – Delaware Architect License?
Applicants for an Architect license in Delaware whose application path asks for employment verification need this form. The Division's checklist for that path requires a Verification of Employment form from each employer you disclose on your online application. If you disclose more than one employer, you need one form per employer.
The person who completes the employer's part is the employer or supervisor. The Division gives "employment verifications from a supervisor" as an example of a third-party form, which the applicant either mails or asks the third party to mail directly to the Board office.
The Division's checklists for the examination pathway and for Reciprocity Options 1 to 4 do not list this form. DELPROS asks questions to determine which method applies to you and tells you which documents to submit, so confirm your required documents there before you collect signatures. If you previously held a Delaware Architect license that has terminated, you must reapply by Reciprocity or Direct Application, and the document list for your pathway applies.
When to file Verification of Employment – Delaware Architect License
Gather this form when you prepare the Attachments page of your Architect license application in DELPROS, because it supports the employers you disclose there. The form sets no separate due date of its own on the agency page.
The timing that does apply is the application's: DELPROS lets you save an incomplete application and return to it, but you have only six (6) months to submit the application once you begin. If you do not submit within six months, you must restart the entire online application. Allow time for the employer or supervisor to complete the form, and for mailing if the form requires a signature, seal or notary.
You can check your application's status at any point with the "View Application Status" feature on your e-License dashboard in DELPROS.

Confirm the form is on your checklist
Log in to DELPROS and check the documents it tells you to submit. The form is required from each employer you disclose on your online application.

Have the employer or supervisor complete it
The Division treats employment verifications from a supervisor as a third-party form. If the form requires a supervisor signature, seal or notary, obtain it before delivery.
Choose upload or mail
Upload the form on the DELPROS Attachments page unless the document says it must be mailed. If it must be mailed, click "acknowledge" and mail it yourself or have the third party mail it to the Board office.
Review and download the completed PDF
Check that each form matches the employer named in your application, then download or print the completed PDF from FillingPDF and deliver it as described under How to submit.
How to submit Verification of Employment – Delaware Architect License
The form reaches the Board office in one of two ways through your DELPROS application: you upload it, or you acknowledge it and it is mailed.
- Online portal: All applications are submitted through DELPROS at https://delpros.delaware.gov/OH_HomePage. Click GO on the Apply/Manage a License and Service Requests tile, then log in or register as a new user.
- Upload: On the Attachments page, "attach" or "upload" the document by selecting the file saved on your computer or device.
- Acknowledge and mail: Click "acknowledge" if you will mail the document yourself or have a third party mail it directly to the Board office.
Forms that require a supervisor signature, seal or notary may have to be mailed to the Board office directly, unless the document specifically says to upload it. The agency page gives no street address for the Board office, so use the instructions in DELPROS for mailing details.
FillingPDF lets you fill out and download the PDF; submission follows the channels above.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Providing a form for only some of your employers; the checklist asks for a Verification of Employment form from each employer you disclose on your online application.
- Uploading a form that needs a supervisor signature, seal or notary when it should be mailed to the Board office; only upload it if the document specifically says to.
- Clicking "acknowledge" in DELPROS and then never mailing the form or asking the third party to mail it directly to the Board office.
- Letting the DELPROS application run past six months from when you began it; you must then restart the entire online application.
- Trying to apply outside DELPROS; all applications are submitted through the online system.
- Assuming this form is required for every pathway; the checklists for examination and Reciprocity Options 1 to 4 do not list it, so confirm in DELPROS.
