Florida RN license by endorsement

U.S.A. Florida

Hello all,

where do I need to go to apply for a Florida RN license by endorsement?

How much money are we talking about in fees?

Thanks for your responses,

I have learn that is not very easy to find a job as an RN in FL without any experience if the person not graduated from FL RN school is that right? Thanks for the answer...

I don't think that is always the case.

I have one co-worker who went to boston for nursing school and then passed boards in boston then endorsed her license here in florida and soon after got a job in my floor.

I think that sometimes in some areas of the hospital they want experience like icu setting---- although in my hospital they take GN's and newly licensed RN's in all areas.

Thank you, that is very helpful information...:)

Is any one have an idea about the agent location where I can perform finger prints (for FL RN license endorsement) in NY area? Can I do it in the local police office? I just moved in to this country so your help very appreciated.

this is from the actual application for the fl license::

fingerprint card: all applicants must complete two (2) fingerprint cards, per florida statutes 464.009(3). failure to submit fingerprint cards will delay your application.

your local law enforcement agency will roll your fingerprints, and may charge you a fee. when you contact your local law enforcement agency, confirm that they have the fd-258 fingerprint card available. if the fd-258 is unavailable, you may order blank fingerprint cards for a fee at www.fldoh.sofn.net.

all applicants are required to log on to the internet site: http://www.fldoh.sofn.net to enter profile information. print out the resulting barcode sheet, and mail the barcode sheet with your completed fingerprint cards to our office at:

florida board of nursing 4052 bald cypress way, bin c-02 tallahassee, fl 32399-3252

entering your profile information is free. the information is stored in our database and will complete your biometric data when we scan your fingerprint card. if you do not have access to the internet at home or work, you can use a computer at your local public library.

handle your fingerprint card with the utmost care and mail it to our address in a flat envelope. smudged, folded, or bent cards may result in rejected results making resubmission necessary.

so there you have your answer. So you can go to the police station in NY and see if they have the right form, and if they don't go to the website and ask them to mail them to you. and make sure you follow the instructions word for word in that FL application.

Thank you very much...

Does any one know how much the new grad RN salary in FL compare to NY?

21.75 in clearwater thats what I am getting

Thanks for the answer.

Thanks for your answer. It's very helpful since I'm in the preparation to move to FL. I do have some question for you if you don't mind to answer me. How long have you been working as an RN? Do you still have to pay the tax with that salary? I heard FL does not have state taxes only federal taxes. And also there will be no tax return is that right? if it is does the tax has been deducted fairly? Thank you

do we need to work first in the initial licensing state before can endorse to other state?

hi, soonRN

no, you dont need to work in the state where you initially have license with for you to apply for reciprocity to another state.
