ATT issue

Hello to everyone.
My question could be seen kinda stupid but I'm unfamiliar with it. Who sends ATT : BON of state I applyed for lisensure or Pearson vue issues it to me after getting it from BON. I applyed to NY BON via CVS issued from CGFNS. Educational department of BON NY has received the approvement from CGFNS on 5, May. And since than I haven't got any sign of being eligible to sit for NCLEX. I'm not registered with Pearson vue because they want me to pay NCLEX fee during registration, and I've read from this forum about stupidity of this step - paying for NCLEX without getting ATT and sceduling the exam. Does someone know about timing from NY BON about issuing ATT considering I'm foreign nurse.
Thanks in advance.
Natalie.

Re: ATT issue

BON - determine if you are eligible to take the exam

pearsonvue- issue the ATT

*registration to pearsonvue ($200) is valid for 365 days... that means, the BON should have determined your eligibility to sit for an exam within that period

*once you register to pearsonvue, they will contact the BON to determine if you are eligible

* if you are eligible, they will send the ATT through your email address

btw, did you already send your application for licensure to NY BON?

Could you please give me an official link to this fact? (validation for 365 days)

As I wrote before CGFNS sent an approoved CVS for NY on 5, May. And I filled and sent the request "form 1" from their site in July 2005 (including all fees, of cause)

Thank you.

Re: ATT issue

Since you know that the CVS was sent, go ahead and pay the fee. The issue is with nurses that pay the fee the same day that they first send their application in.

I would pay the fee, then verify with Pearson-Vue that they received notification from NY. recently one of the nurses here waited a couple of months and it turned out NY had issued it, but PV never received it. Took a phone call and it was easily straightened out.

Just because a document was sent, it does not guarantee that it was received.

Re: ATT issue

a might be very stupid question:
i will graduate in less than 3 weeks. should i mail the form 1 (i am from ny) asap or wait till i actually graduate?

Re: ATT issue

If you trained in the US, you can go ahead and send in the application, but not one thing will be done until your school submits transcripts to them. They need the completed transcript before they will evaluate your status.

Re: ATT issue

I'm so frustrated from yesterday call to NY BON about ATT status. They received the approved file of CVS NY from CGFNS on 05/05/06 BUTthey havn't reviewed it yet!!! due to enormous amount of other requests!
Two months of dead time! And they even don't estimate how much time will it take to have a look on it! What should I do in order to get things faster?
