 A VETERAN ADMITTED TO PRACTICE IN ANOTHER JURISDICTION.  THE COMMISSION-
 ER SHALL PROVIDE FOR TEMPORARY ADMISSION TO THE PRACTICE OF A PROFESSION
 BY  A  VETERAN  WHO  IS  ADMITTED  TO THE PRACTICE OF THAT PROFESSION IN
 ANOTHER JURISDICTION FOR THE PERIOD OF TIME IT TAKES FOR  THE  VETERAN'S

 STATE TO BE PROCESSED. SUCH  APPLICATION  SHALL  BE  DETERMINED  BY  THE
 COMMISSIONER  WITHIN  THIRTY  DAYS OF THE FILING OF THE APPLICATION WITH

 NECESSARY FOR ADMISSION TO PRACTICE THE PROFESSION IN  NEW  YORK  STATE,
 THEN THE COMMISSIONER SHALL GRANT SUCH VETERAN ADMISSION TO PRACTICE THE
 PROFESSION IN NEW YORK STATE.
   § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
