Many (most?) states have you renew in the month of your birthdate, which is probably the reason for the difference. However, as Suzanne4 noted, your state BON can tell you for sure.

that happened to me as well. I have taken my NCLEX in March, 2004 and I have renewed my license in Dec 2005 because it is my birth month. Like them, I would also suggest to contact BON for clarification.
