I currently hold a license as a RN in Indiana. I took the NCLEX exam to get my license. I wish to apply for and be granted a license in Florida as well as Indiana and work part of the year in each place. Does anyone know how I would go about applying for a Florida license and what examinations I may have to take? Any contact information would be greatly appreciated as well as the approximate amount of time it would take to obtain a Fl license. Thank you for any help... ----A cold RN in Indiana:rcgtku::rcgtku:

Once you take the NCLEX RN in one state, you just endorse it to another state. You need to contact the FL BON to see what they require. You can keep multiple licenses as long as you adhere to each state's BON rules.
Good luck...with a current ice storm here, I wholeheartedly understand going to FL for the winter! lol
Great! Thanks for the speedy reply. I will contact the Fl BON tomorrow!! Stay warm.
Thanks - I'll try - I live next door in IL and brrrr - the high was 12 today.
