delayed CES approval

World International

Published

Hi everyone!

Does anyone here have the same dilemma as me?? I applied for my CES last March 13, 2006. I took the CGFNS CP last 2004 so CGFNS has all my papers with them. But I sent the license verification and nursing education background forms again. But, it's been almost 4 months and CGFNS has not approved my CES!! It's so frustrating. My eligibility for Illinois BON is pending because of that one document. I'm sooo irritated. I tried calling CGFNS but no customer representative is answering. I was on the phone for almost 30mins!!!!:angryfire

just venting out some rage here. arrgghhh!!!

Hello KathyKaye,

Just would like to know from you, since you have been approved by CGFNS, if it is a requirement for me to be RN here in the Phils. first before applying for CES and CVS...err, I took the local board exam last June and I'm not so confident about my chances. By the way, I plan to apply to the NY BON.

Hope you can give me some inputs.

Thank you very much and God bless.

First, if you got your CGFNS exam completed in 2004, chances are that the file that they had for you is already outdated. It is only good for two years, and that is from when you sent the application to them, not from when you got your Certificate. That is the problem that I see right away.

have you checked your online status? if it's "waiting to be received", then probably, they're waiting for it. If it's "received but not reviewed", then nothing you can do but wait.

A friend of mine took only 3-4 weeks from the date CES received all the documents. That was 3 days ago when she checked online.
