CA BVNPT - LVN inquiries and updates for international students

World Registration

Published

Hi, I thought it'd be best for all the international students that are having the issues with the CA BON due to the stricter enforcement of the rules and regulations and are now having to take another nursing route that of being a LVN, taking the tests related to being an LVN, transference of your records from the CA BON to BVNPT, etal, would be best served here rather than being posted in the other LVN-LPN forum, since that forum is geared more towards those educated in the States.

The other few forums of the CA Board of Nursing, CA RN NCLEX-RN, etc are getting too cluttered now, since the situation of going after the RN license is different than the LVN license.

Hope this helps you guys out more and best of luck!

Hello everyone. I am new on this site.. I just submitted my application to take the NCLEX-PN and yes I was denied for NCLEX RN..MY analyst said he will forward my transcripts and any other documents to the LVN board so I didnt bother to fill up record of nursing program(55A-2), record of Nursing experience(55A-3), employment experience and 54 hours pharmacology. I have a question..WHAT IS DECLARATION OF NURSING EDUCATION?..is this the TOR and RLE? or is this a form we need to fill up and send to BVNPT..please please anyone out there who could help me with this

After the BVNPT reviews your application, the declaration form comes after they give your application the initial okay, but it's still not the full 100% approval yet.

Proof of 12th Grade Education – Attach proof of 12th grade education or its equivalent. A copy of your high school diploma or GED Certificate is acceptable. :)

1) Since we have already submitted a TOR to BRN, and they say they can forward those documents to BVNPT, do we still have to get another TOR from our school? and another live scan as well?

2) So in summary, is it safe to ask our school for RECORD of NURSING PROGRAM only? The rest of the documents will be submitted by BRN to BVNPT, except those indicated in Step # 1 (Basic Documents). Am I good to go with that?

3) When is the right time to ask the BRN to transfer those papers to BVNPT? - mainly the TOR and the live scan.
