If you have not applied for the CVS that is required for NY, please do not even consider going to NY to test for NCLEX exam. You are talking months from now.

Please read the "Primer" at the top of this forum.

And no, the loval exam is not required.

Re: do i still need to take a local board?

CVS does not require a local license, NY does not require a local license. They do not write two different applications for the CVS. If you have not taken the local board, you do not put a license number there. If you have taken one, then you put the number there.

Same thing with the Visa Screen Certificate applciation.

The only thing that requires the local license is the CGFNS exam.
