Compact license and renewal

Nurses General Nursing

Published

When I started working as a nurse, I got my Alabama license. A year went by and I thought I was going to move to Florida and work there so I got my compact license in Florida. This was before Alabama became compact. I ended up not working in Florida. Now the renewal for Alabama is coming up. I would like to renew my Alabama license as compact, and I guess inactivate my Florida license so I don’t have 2 compact licenses? Does this sound right? I have Alabama as my residence. 

In which state do you maintain legal residency?

Alabama

Then, if you mean multi-state when you say compact, you shouldn't have a FL multi-state license as you have to maintain residency.  

As to obtaining a multi-state license you will have to apply to the AL BON to have your license changed from single- to multi-state.
