ATT expired. California BRN

Published

My ATT expired last January 29, 2010. I tried to re-exam before the expiration, I sent the reapplication form with the check for $75 and everything. Unfornately, the reply from the BRN came to late (they replied on Jan 26, 2009. I received the letter on the 29th). So now..I'm guessing that I have to re-register with pearson vue since my eligibility is good for two years. That is, until 2011. My question is..do I just go ahead and log into my account on pearson vue and pay for the 200 dollars or do I have to do anything else? I last took the exam on June 20, 2009.

some facts:

ATT validity : January 29, 2009 - January 29, 2010

Took Exam : June 20, 2009

Sent form for reapplication/re-examination : Jan 2, 2010

Received letter : January 29, 2010

Eligibility for nclex : January 2009 - January 2011

I guess you have to re-register and pay the money again....

Thought I'd add that dependent on how your state works, you might have to redo your background check/fingerprinting stuff over again too. Where I am, it's no good after a few months if you are going for the nursing boards/license.

Go ahead and reregister. The Board will let you know if you have to update anything. Never wait until the last minute when you are dealing with the state of CA; they are known for taking forever and on license renewal paperwork they even warn about this fact.

As it turns out...you have to fill out the request for reapplication/repeat examination form and mail it first together with a check for $75. Then receive a letter stating that you are eligible to register for the examination. Log into pearson vue, pay the $200 registration fee. You will then receive your ATT via email or through the mail. I haven't scheduled for an exam yet. But at that point, I'll have to pay for another $75..I just posted what needed to be done just in case it would be helpful to others who might have the same situation as I do.

Just wondering how did you go about it? Did you just reregister online? Or did you have to reapply and repeat the process again with California board of nursing? I have almost the same dilemma...ATT expiring today but eligibility is still good for another year. Please let me know..thanks

I think you have to do the things and passed all the requirements needed for re-applying for NCLEX..just like what you did when you re-applied again. You just need to send and fill out the application for reapply/repeat examination sheet plus the $75. Then wait for the letter of eligibility and then pay the $200 at Pearson to get your ATT and then they will email/mail your ATT that's when you can schedule your exam.
