Currently holding TX APRN license but considering to move to AZ

Published

Hi all,

I currently hold an active TX APRN license - my husband and I are actually considering moving to Arizona. My question is -- how do I go about obtaining my AZ APRN license? Do I obtain my RN license in AZ first, then apply for APRN? I know AZ and TX are compact states for RNs. Since both are compact states, can I just go straight to applying for APRN in AZ? I can't claim residency in AZ because I don't have any job offers in AZ yet. I want to have my AZ license (RN & APRN) first prior to applying for jobs in AZ. Sorry if the post is confusing - I'm pretty confused in this matter too :( 

Any advice is greatly appreciated!!
