Clarifying Compact License

Any info? The Texas BON used to have very obscure language but it has now been clarified. I USED to think you need a special "compact" license to practice in a compact state other than Texas.

Now the wording makes it look like you can practice in another compact state with just a clear Texas license.

I have a standard Texas RN license. I have an opportunity to work occasional weekend shifts in Oklahoma (a compact state) for a great rate.

Can I do this "as-is" or do I need to file additional paperwork/get a special "compact" license?

    You need a compact license.

    Look yourself up on nursys.com - if your Texas license does not specify "multistate," you need to apply for that. Here in Georgia when we enacted the compact legislation, obtaining a multistate license was a separate application/background check/fingerprints/fee. Other states will only accept your compact license if it says "multistate." The Nursys site also shows a handy map of where you can practice with your current licensure.
