Still waiting for my ticket...restless...


The BON received my application on Dec. 24, and my school says they received confirmation their paperwork was received on Jan 4th, but so far I have no ticket to test. I want to test soon so it's over-with before I start a new job. I can use every day to study, but I just want to get the appt. scheduled. Such a wait! Government...

Most states take about four weeks on average after they recieve everything before you will get permission to register. They have to go thru your file, remember that when you get the letter giving you permission, it means that you have met all requirements for licensure in that state, so verifications need to be done, etc.

You are not alone in the wait. We had our pinning on Dec. 9. The BON received my paperwork on Nov. 9 and Pearson Vue received my registration on Nov. 25. Everything on my end that I am aware of was completed. There was an error with the verification forms that the school sent for all of us in my class, so all of that was sent back to the school. They corrected it and sent it back in.
Everyone who completed their stuff has received their ATT and has scheduled an exam date or already took it. Except for me. My school overlooked my form so my processing has been delayed again. I am so upset. I was one of the first to have everything completed in my class and because of someone elses error I am in limbo.
I spoke to the BON at the beginning of the week and they said they had everything and the next declaring day would be Friday (late), well here it is Saturday and the site still does not have me declared eligible, and I have no email from Pearson Vue.
I am sorry you are going through this, I know how it feels. I was so ready to test earlier this month, now I can't concentrate on anything. People who were able to schedule their exams said that the center in our area is booked until mid-February or later now. So, you have to wait to test or see if there is something at another center. I hate going to unknown places, stresses me out so bad, but I will have to do that.
Sorry to be so long. Sorry to complain. I am just getting so sick from the wait and racking my brain as to what can be so wrong with my stuff that I have not received anything yet, when my classmates received theirs on Jan 11.
I hope you hear something soon and I am so sorry that you have to wait. Take care,

KDB

KDBsmom, Sounds like you've just had plain bad luck, and I can understand your rising anxiety. I would feel really distracted and frustrated too. I'll bet you'll hear something this coming business week. Which state do you live in? Since you're forced to wait just keep practicing questions, and get some exercise to uncap your energy in a positive way.
