A foreign educated FL RN applying for endorsement in WA state

[lllenjolll]

Hi. I'm a Philippine graduate.

I applied in FL for licensure and currently residing in WA state. I don't mind relocating to FL but

I can't leave in WA state for now d/t family issues.

So I recently applied for license endorsement in Washington State.

Then they sent me an email asking transcripts to be sent to them

from my school of nursing or from the state where I am licensed originally.

I got no one in the Philippines to process my papers and knowing how slOOOOOooooWWW

my school's processing time when it comes to sending documents overseas.

Do you think FL-BON has copy of my transcripts and can forward it? Because I know when I applied to them for licensure, My original transcripts are forwarded to CGFNS via CES for FL educ background.

Thanks. Appreciate all the help and response I can get.

Looking at WA state website they need CES from CGFNS so just complete the form for CGFNS to send to another state and get them to send your report to the new state. There is usually a fee for this

Go to near the bottom of the page and there is a Q&A on how to send to another state CGFNS International â€" Global Credibility in Credentials Evaluation

When I inquired with WA regarding the same concern, this was their response:

"To answer your question, you do need to request your transcripts to be sent directly to us at the address below. Transcripts can be accepted either from --- Board of Nursing, CGFNS, or your school. There are times that the transcripts we receive from a Nursing Board are incomplete for whatever reason, and in that case, we ask that you request an official copy from your nursing school."

Good luck! :)
