California att

JustBeachyNurse, LPN · Aug 21, 2014

You registered and paid the $200 to Pearson Vue right? Did you check your spam/bulk/junk folder? You would be surprised how many people don't realize they need to apply to the board of nursing AND register at Pearson Vue. Or that they need to submit fingerprints for a background check....

Yep I did the livescan and that came back and paid Pearson vue. The BRN has said they haven't got to the application yet so I was hoping maybe another May/June applicant could share when they received their att so I could estimate how much longer I have to go. Last few weeks they have been saying they are working on the beginning of June. I don't understand how they can take weeks to work on a couple days worth of apps but it's getting to be very frustrating as studies have shown the pass rate for NCLEX decreasing with the longer you wait.

That is crazy. I finished classes on 8/6, university issued the degree on 8/15, and got my ATT today. I guess there is a huge difference between California and Indiana.

Very much so. Plus BVNPT is inundated with internationally educated nurses who did meet the qualifications for RN licensing who are now challenging LVN. That plus they are transitioning to a new system and influx of new graduates causes the backlog and hurry up & wait.

Finally after waiting over 3 months from submitting my application for exam, I received my ATT. I wish I would of known it was going to be a 3 month wait but that battle is over now it's NCLEX time.

Just wondering if anyone is still having this problem? My payment was processed on June 2nd and I'm still waiting to hear something. I used to be able to get through to speak to someone on the phone but the past week or so, I have called countless times only to have a busy signal or hear the recording saying they can't take my call. So frustrating.

My check was cashed in November and I didn't get ATT until late February, took NCLEX mid March, then almost 3-week wait for results. Ugh!

I figured by now the BRN had the kinks worked out.

Hi, I was wondering if you can share when exactly you received your att? my check was cashed in july, but still no att

blueskies1, BSN · Sep 30, 2014

My check was cashed June 5th and didn't receive att until August 30.

June 2nd and I got my ATT Sep 18th. After many, many, many phone calls to the BRN! I think they are still having a lot of issues, but I was lucky enough to get in touch with two different people at the BRN who were both super helpful in getting my application seen by someone, and then I got my ATT within a few days.
