I got my bank draft from Chinabank. I had a dollar account with them and they just debited $126 dollars fee (application+fingerprint fee.). I got it after waiting for 30 minutes. I just paid P100 for the processing.

I have a few concerns about paying the renewal of my license in NM BON. They accept credit cards right? The only card written there are visa and master card.

I'm using my aunt's credit card which is " discovery card" do u have any idea if that is acceptable? and I still have one question. Since I'm using her card, the renewal form requires valid signature. My auntie is in the states and I'm in Philippines, is it allowed that I will be the one to sign it in the renewal form?

Thank for the very useful information you guys imparted to all us Nurses, its very, very useful!

You're reply would be greatly appreciated!

God bless us All!!!!!

A Discover card is different type and would not be accepted if they require VISA or Mastercard only.

This bank draft/demand draft issue has been in existence for quite a long time now in RP banks where a client would seem to have no option or nowhere to go unless he/she is really rich and can afford to open an account.

If I were a bank, I'd deal on this problem and be the first to address this concern. I'm sure many will gladly pay for this service, especially if you offer it at a low rate...Can you just imagine that even if it's a little amount but if you monopolize it...Banks, just consider the nursing population nowadays...It's like refusing profit...

That problem is why there are NCLEX application centers established to help nurses. They can assist you with that stuff for a fee.

kanebo · Jun 30, 2009

Try Paperworx you can call them. They can assist you in credit card payments and NCLEX registrations.

Hushdawg · Jul 1, 2009

I looked up this Paperworx online, I don't see anything. Seems like any reputable company would at least have a website.

This is a nurse's career we're talking about.. he or she should only trust an established company.

No functional website = no establishment = possible scam artists

Try an NCLEX center that has been around for a while.

I will advise you not pursue your NCLEX application in California if you do not have a US Social Security Number. The CA board will not issue you a license w/o it even if you passed the NCLEX. You will have 3 years to secure one, otherwise they will have your file destroyed and you will be forced to take the NCLEX again.

New York State Board of Nursing will issue you a license, but you have to have your credentials evaluated by the CGFNS NY Credentials Verification first prior to applying for NCLEX.

In both states, bankdraft is the only mode of payment. You can pay CGFNS via MasterCard or Visa (they do not accept American Express) online.

Hushdawg · Jul 3, 2009

Actually that is not entirely true, if your license is close to expiration in CA and you have not yet gotten a SSN you can extend/renew the license if you meet certain criteria.

Many states will issue licenses, not just NY.

Almost every single state now requires CES or CP certification before being able to obtain eligibility. Now more than ever it is more important to focus on exactly where you want to be and apply directly to that state.

If the process seems difficult (and for most nurses it is) then you can seek the assistance of a professional application center to help rather than wasting time and struggling over documents written by lawyers and bureaucrats.

The bankdraft should be made payable to BRN. The board has two addresses, one PO Box, and a physical address that you will use. Check out their website for there are details that you will need to enter in filling up a courier form.

i have a few concerns about paying the renewal of my license in nm bon. they accept credit cards right? the only card written there are visa and master card. nm bon accepts visa and mastercard only. if you insisted on using other credt card, they will not process your renewal which will lead to things:
1. wasted courier fee, and
2. you might not make it to the deadline of the renewal. the fee for delinquent renewal is $200
i'm using my aunt's credit card which is " discovery card" do u have any idea if that is acceptable? and i still have one question. since i'm using her card, the renewal form requires valid signature. my auntie is in the states and i'm in philippines, is it allowed that i will be the one to sign it in the renewal form?
let's say your aunt in the us has a visa or mastercard, she will still be the one who will sign the document. what you can do is, send her the renewal form, have her sign the payment form, and ask her to send it to nm bon.
thank for the very useful information you guys imparted to all us nurses, its very, very useful!
you're reply would be greatly appreciated!
god bless us all!!!!!

ps: just make sure that you have completed the 30 continuing education units required before submitting your renewal form.
