Where can I go to find out the states requirements for Financial Advisors. From what I have read there is no federal requirement and some states do not require a license.

To clarify, however, a financial advisor and an IAR (investment advisor representative)are two different things. One is compensated by commissions (or a combination of commissions and fees) and the other is unable to be compensated by anything other than a management fee. Also the necessary licenses are different as well
