Frustrated no ATT yet (FL)

Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

Well where do I start, I'm getting frustrated! I received my acknowledgement letter December 14th, which was really quick by the way. Anyway I was waiting patiently til i noticed it rolled around to 2 weeks still no ATT letter. I called the BON (the office directly) a lady replies that all my information plus finger prints are in correctly. Okay, so whats the hold up I should have had it before Christmas. Now its rolling on 3 weeks soon nothing though I know its New Years Day, still just confused and frustrated. Ive been studying for a month now and im ready to conquer this hurdle in my life. I hope I've retained what I'm studying cause as time goes by it feels like omg what if I don't remember. Is there anybody out there going through the same issue???

P.s I pearson vue has notified me that the BON has not approved my eligibility to test ugh!:whistling: anyday now BON

I applied twice to Florida( i failed twice.). Immediately after registration with pearson vue,florida sent approval and i got ATT within 24 hrs. I am not sure,why the board is delaying to send an approval????? You need to follow up with Florida Board.

Good luck...........

HAPPY NEW YEAR.............

Happy New Year to you also

Thanks for the reply... Exactly I don't understand what the delay is either I figured probably due to the holidays but I sent my app in way before Christmas came around. Basically my whole class got they ATT within 2 weeks so puzzled.

Specializes in Geriatrics, Telemetry, Med-Surg.

I graduated in December 2011 and didn't get my ATT until early February of 2012. I sent in my app before graduation. I think it had a a lot to do with the holidays. Hope you get it soon.

I've been studying with Saunders nclex-pn review 4th edition and kaplan 2013-2014 for test taking strategies. I got 54/145 on the kaplan test I'm not sure if thats good or bad.

Hey everyone that's reading and the ones that were so kind to give me some advice or etc.

I wanted to give everyone a update on my situation. I woke up early Jan 2 calling FLBON looking for answers as to what is going on, the first rep I spoke to was no help what so ever she just acknowledge me that they have 30 days to process the app by law. Then I went searching for a good email address (found it) I emailed the FLBON and the responded the same day really happy about that. They explained to the process and that they were currently on Dec. 11 applications and that mine should be processed within 1-2 business days. By then I calmed down and just decided to wait and see (they were quick on giving me some info). God is good I tell you I happened to check my email and they emailed me again stating have my app status and were going to expedite my app process. They APPROVED my eligibility and I had my GPN letter all in that second email. They let me know I should have my ATT soon yay. All the advice i got off here from previous threads really helped THANK YOU ALL and being assertive is very helpful!!!!!!!

I got my ATT yesterday. I received within 24hrs,after registering with Pearson Vue. Now it's time for me to battle in the Nclex field. I did not face any problem in receiving ATT. Texas board said,they will send ATT within 15 days,but i got just within 24hrs.

Yes i called pearson vue and was told after they sent me my email verification stating they received my money....i should expect my ATT 30days after. Makes no sense to ne. So i think im going to call the OHBON monday.

I think that's a good idea because I was puzzled until looking on here and another person was experience issues as well. She stated that she called like crazy and finally she got someone that was willing to help her, she received her ATT in 24hrs. I must say it works.... I hope you get some results, let me know how it goes GOOD LUCK :)
