California: just submitted SSN

[lenestoque19]

Hi everyone!

I only have one question: how long does it take for CA-BRN to issue an applicant his/her physical license? I already passed my NCLEX-RN in the Philippines before, but since I do not have any SSN, I was not issued anything at that time. But since I came here July 26, 2011, on a CR1 visa, which is conditional permanent license and was issued SSN a week after I came here. I submitted all the required documentation, even the finger printing last Aug 17 but I have not heard from them ever since. I was checking their website, hoping to see my name on the permanent license verification.

I hope someone can enlighten me or even give a rough estimate of the time frame for them to put my name on their permanent license verification and/or issue a physical license?

Can take anything from 3 days to 6 weeks but may be worth chasing up now by ringing the BRN

Thanks Silverdragon.

How about applying for reciprocity from Ca to WA? How long will that take?

Depends on requirements of WA. If CES is required you are looking at a few months
