document transfer from RN BON to LVN BON

Published

Hi I was currently denied the eligibility to take the NCLEX for RN here in SoCal so I decided that for the meantime to take my chances as a LVN. I was adviced by my evaluator that documents that I have submitted (especially the school documents) can be transfered or send to the LVN BON for me to be able to challenge their NCLEX. I was just wondering how the procedure works, should I request my documents first to be forwarded to LVN BON or should I submit my application first with the payment. Ive read that documents should be sent together with the application so I dont know how it works for document transfer. I would sincerely appreciate any information. Thanks :)

Why don't you call them and ask? Best info you will get is from the Board itself.

Moved to the International forum where there are several posts discussing LVN and transferring from BRN usually a small fee is required

First,you have to submit the application form and all the needed requirements to Board of Vocational Nursing and wait for 2 weeks before you send a request letter and a $30 fee to the Board of Registered Nursing.Transferring of documents to LVN board takes 4-6 weeks.You better send your application now to the LVN board because they're still processing applicants who cashed out their payments on Feb.25.
