how long to get a CES report (CGFNS)

World Registration

Published

first off, my apologies if this is in the wrong place. I wasn't sure where to put it. I was wondering if anyone here had recent experience with getting a CES report from CGFNS and how long it took to have that done. I applied for it and paid the fee back in mid April and they received all the documents by June 1. Originally, the e-mail they sent stated up to 5 weeks to complete the review. So mid July rolls around and I am wondering where the heck is my report?! Every time I check my status on their website it says "Ready for review." I sent an e-mail and received a generic "do not respond to this e-mail" which said current processing time could be UP TO 8 to 10 weeks. Last week was 10 weeks... I sent another e-mail and I got the exact same reply they sent me before! I guess I should call them, but their call center is only open 08-1200 hrs EST. I am PST and I have a toddler so sitting on the phone all morning is a bit of a problem..

Has anyone else experienced this? Any suggestions for speeding up the process? I'm guessing the odds of that happening are nil but I thought I would ask on the off chance... I'm worried my file is sitting on someone's desk and been forgotten about. A guy called me 2 weeks ago from the Department of Health (Washington state) and said my license application has been sitting on his desk for months now, everything complete except for the CGFNS report & successful NCLEX completion, but he will have to cancel it if I do not get the CGFNS part of it done within 90 days:crying2:

Hi please is there a BON that doesn't require CES, please let me know, thanks.

Most states will require some form of report either from CGFNS or other accepted agency. 2 states that don't As New York that do cvs and California that do their own assessment. Strongly suggest applying to state you plan on living and working in as requirements for endorsing can be same as initial application if trained outside the US
