California Board of Registered Nursing

I had thought about doing that, but instead I just waited and it finally did come in. I got my first RN license in February 2014 in Tennessee. I submitted to get my CA license that same day in February. I actually flew out to San Diego (where I now live) to get my fingerprints done the next day to make the process quicker (by mail I think it's like 6 weeks longer or something). It was a quick two day trip but worth it to me! I think it took another two months for my CA license to come in. I heard it also depends on the time of year you put in your application for a license (May/June is really busy time and can take longer). Good luck and congrats on your job in CA! But to answer your question, no I haven't been to the office in Sacramento....I would guess it might make the process quicker but I really don't know. It is really hard to get through on the telephone. If you come in person they might end up telling you just to wait for it to come in, then again who knows? It might help to come. I've always wanted to visit the capital city, haven't done so yet. Where is your job going to be, which city?

You could try sending them a message via fax addressed to your evaluator. Just remember to put your contact details as well so that they can send you a response faster. I tried this method when I found an error in my att. My evaluator sent me a response thru email after around 3 working days. Hope this helps! I myself did not want to spend money going all the way to Sacramento.
