How New Jersey Teacher (state certificate) license verification works

A Teacher (state certificate) in New Jersey is licensed by the NJ Childcare / Teacher Licensing. When this board is live, PrimaryCheck will query it directly for status, expiration and disciplinary actions and attach the board's record as evidence. Until then the API answers honestly with unable_to_verify and the reason, and the coverage endpoint reports this row as blocked.
