Ind. Code § 26-3-7-8

Sec. 8. Upon receipt of an application for a permanent license, the director may issue a temporary license to the applicant for a reasonable time, not to exceed ninety (90) days, as the director deems necessary or advisable to enable the applicant to comply with the further requirements for obtaining a license under this chapter. A temporary license entitles the temporary licensee to the same rights and subjects the temporary licensee to the same duties as if the temporary licensee had a permanent license.
