Application for RN through GBON??

[ahain0013]

Is anyone else having trouble getting a response out of the GBON as far as obtaining your ATT? My application was acknowledged 2 weeks ago and they just said it can take up to 25 business days to process. Anyone else have trouble with getting their ATT? Do they actually take the 5 weeks to process? It's torture waiting, I just want to take the NCLEX and get it over with!

Yes, I spoke with someone yesterday about my ATT but she said 25 days as well.

The Georgia Board of Nursing requests applicants to allow up to twenty-five business days for the information to be processed. Typically, this information is processed much quicker. Unfortunately, there are frequent occasions when the information submitted to the Board does not match the information submitted by the applicant. In cases like this, delays may occur.

I knew it would take a while, I am just in the process of moving and it would be nice to know any information on how long it may take to be able to schedule the boards. Do you know, does it often actually take the full 25 business days? Today when I checked, I actually had several things "completed" on my status online. I thought that was a good sign, so maybe I won't be waiting too much longer?

When did you put your application in hopefulnurse11?

[hopefulnurse11]

May 19th. Kinda late, but I had no other choice. I only have one box checked, "completed." : ( When did you submit your app?

[hopefulnurse11]

Do you have a job already?

I submitted mine the 2nd week of may, and they officially started processing it May 17th. Today, I got a few more fields put down as "completed" but then got an email saying they needed me to submit an offical transcript, which my school said they already did. So hopefuly after I get another one sent to them I will get my ATT in the next week. Yes I do have a job lined up in Athens, GA. I'm from out of state and all my classmates have scheduled/taken the NCLEX. I am hoping my delay with the GBON is normal, and employers down there are understanding.

I hope so too. I just recently moved from Kentucky so my application was done by paper. I hope to receive it by months end. Congrats to you! I have an interview with Wellstar.

[ahain0013]

Thank you! And I hope your interview goes well! I had to do the paper application too, hopefully we'll both be able to get this test over and done with...it's torture waiting! :)

[hopefulnurse11]

I received my ATT today.

[ahain0013]

Thats awesome! I am so happy for you! They asked me to resend my transcript so hopefully that doesn't hold me up for long.
