Consider, what is the worst that could happen?

You might get caught in a bureaucratic loop, where someone just can't figure out that the you in Tenn that filed is also the you in Nevada, and kicks things back for reinvestigation. And in the months, (possibly years) that pass, your case might get kicked to someone else, who will, naturally, not have (or not accept) the work already done, and have to start all over, the whole process repeating until the energy death of the universe.

If you can deal with that, cool. Otherwise wait until you are well settled in your new state of residence, and then, following all state requirements (if any) THEN file for permission from the Fed.

Good Luck!
