when does your license expire?


So far i just have my temp Tx license. I'm moving from Indiana. I was curious when your license need to be renewed/expire? In Indiana its every other October...odd years. So OCT 09 I will have to pay 50 bucks again and have it renewed for 2 years. Just curious when Texas is? It was 200 for that one...so hoping i dont have to shell out 250 total in oct. I am going to keep my indiana one.

Default Re: when does your license expire?
In the state of Texas, nurses who were born during odd-numbered years will always renew their license during odd-numbered years. For example, I was born in 1981, which is an odd-numbered year. Therefore, my renewal years are 2009, 2011, 2013, and so on.

Likewise, nurses who were born during even-numbered years will always renew their license during even-numbered years. A nurse who was born in 1970, an even-numbered year, would always be scheduled to renew in 2010, 2012, 2014, and so forth.

Texas licensure renewal dates also correspond with your birth month. You will always renew during your birth month, regardless of when your initial license was issued. In addition, I know of no nurse in Texas who pays $200 to renew his/her license. It is usually in the $50 to $60 range every 2 years.

yeah, someone else mentioned that $200 could of been for the initial endorsement package. It was 200. glad it isnt that much to renew. So, i was born in an Odd year during July. So since July has started if I get it now i should be good for 2 years? Glad I didn't get it last month.
