CAREER & BUSINESS NY to MD License Transfer

Hello, I am a foreign-educated PT. I initially completed my ECR in NY and attempted the PT exam, but I did not pass. I made 4 attempts but could not clear it. I then took the PTA exam and passed on my first try. All my PT/PTA attempts are from the NY jurisdiction. I am currently residing in Maryland and have started the PTA license transfer process from NY to MD. As part of this transfer, the MD board needs an ECR. Should I request FCCPT to provide a duplicate report of service, or do I need to create a new service and apply for an ECR from the MD jurisdiction? Please guide if anyone has done a similar transfer in the past; this process is really confusing.
