U.S.A. Nevada

Okay so last July 2016, I applied for licensure by ENDORSEMENT of my Florida RN license for Nevada BON. I did complied with all the requirements except I did not take any english test like TOEFL/IELTS/PTE.

NV BON replied that I can waive my english proficiency if I work as a nurse for 5 years which is, this year will be my 5th year as working licensed nurse (LVN) here in California. I am IEN who got denied that's why I have 2 nursing licenses in different states.

Then, NV BON also mentioned to my letter that they will issue an INTERIM PERMIT as RN and good for 6 months and I need to get my permanent license within that time frame. BUT!! I never received my interim permit, even in their website my name was there and no interim permit was noted.

I did not followed up with them because I moved to different city here in cali with family, got busy to work and I kinda ignored my Nevada dream as RN that moment.

So this 2018, I decided that I feel like, I wanna work in Nevada instead to Florida. My question,

-Can I appeal for another interim permit but my application was way back 2016 tho, am I going to start all over again for application process?

-How am I gonna ask or email the NV BON to tell them that I did not receive my interim permit before?

-Do NV hire RN with interim permits?

Please I need advices. Thank you!

Hello Nursefromcali! Good day! I'm also in the process of endorsing my FL license to NV. Their instructions/policies states "One temporary license may be issued when the appropriate criteria has been met. It is valid for six months and cannot be renewed. If you obtain a temporary license, but do not complete the licensure process, you will not be eligible for another temporary license again in the future." You should give them a call and see if they will issue you another temporary license since you didn't receive yours.

I'm also processing my CGFNS-CES since I am an international nurse. Also, I will be taking my TOEFL since I work
