CA Initial License Fee

Published

I've recently been licensed as an LVN in NJ and am in the process of getting reciprocity for CA. I sent out my application with the $75 application fee. I need to get licensed as soon as possible so I prefer to not wait til I get a response in the mail. Does anyone know if I could send the Initial License Fee ahead of time to shorten my wait? Do I need to wait for the notification from the BVNPT? :confused:

I'm licensed in Ohio, moved to Ca. in September...I sent all my info and fee (including the hard cards for fingerprinting) in August. I sent the BVNPT notice that I had moved here, in October I was notified that I had to use Livescan since I was now a resident...I did that, then....I received notice that my license had been approved and I now had to send the initial license fee....I finally received my license on December 4.

It won't happen in a hurry, that's for sure!

Caliorinia is a very slow state for LVNs, prepare for a long wait.
