Time Btwn Passing Nclex And Getting License

How long is it normally between when you first find out you passed, to getting a licensing number for an employer to verify your license? My friend already got hers, my mailbox was empty (aside from bills) again today... grrrrrr

Here HR and management confirm your license via the internet, which is active the moment you pass NCLEX.

In California, I drove up to the BVNPT in Sacramento the day after I got my letter that said I passed and paid for my license. I also got a temporary license at the same time. My name was posted on the BVNPT website 8 days later and I received my permanent license a few days after that.

I received my initial licensure from California nearly 2 years ago. I received my passing result on January 9, mailed my licensure fee into the BVNPT on that same day, and received my license number on January 20.

I took my Nclex on a Tuesday, found results online Wednesday morning, received the letter saying I passed on Thursday and had my license in my hand via mail on Friday. I guess it depends on what state you test in, and how quick their Bon is...(Mine is Az)

Re: Time Btwn Passing Nclex And Getting License

I had my results, posting on the BON and license within the week. I am hearing that others have taken a bit longer since last year. It depends on the state you are inquiring about. I hear that in California, and I think Texas, they have to wait close to a month to receive results informing if they passed or not.
