The MBLEx has an application fee of $265. Payments may be made by credit card, certified check or money order. Personal checks are not accepted. This payment must be submitted at the time of application. It generally takes the FSMTB about 5 days to process a completed application. The FSMTB does not issue refunds.  You can also expect a $20 testing fee from Pearson Vue.  If you have to retake the MBLEx, you will have to pay the $265 application fee and the $20 testing fee again.
