Does ANYONE know if issue date is your exam date?????

Published

A couple of my classmates and I took the exam on June 1st. We went home and all got the good pop up through PVT. We have been eagerly awaiting to see our names on our BON state website. A good friend of ours who took the exam on May 27th had her results within 24 hours on our BON website. We however have not. Not one of us. When we check to see when the last license was issued it says June 2nd but does this mean they sat for the exam on the 2nd? To everyone who has licenses is your issue date the SAME day you took your exam? Please let me know?? Pearson vue still won't let me register I have checked 100 times and get the same pop up that says contact your member board ect...please let me know!!

I took the NCLEX-RN on May 11th. I was issued an RN license by the state board of nursing on May 12th. Therefore, May 12 is the date that I was issued the license.

The issue date is the date that the Board issues the license. They review test results before issuing the license, so you can't expect the two dates to be the same.

Thank you for letting me know...I am here in Maine...the date my friend was issued was May 27th and then there were no issues again until June 1st (the day I took the exam) however there are issues for June 2nd...it makes me a little worried that the PVT is not correct in my case or my classmates:uhoh3:

The thing is they can be the same. My friend sat for her exam on May 27th at 8 am and on the State board her issue date is also May 27th. This is what has me very, very worried.....

What causes you to worry so frequently about this issue?

Because I have a job lined up....if I didn't pass I will be devastated. So I sit here worried that if June 2nd testers are already issued then I must be out:crying2:

Today is June 3rd, so it has been less than 48 hours since you took NCLEX. If you passed, you will have a license number on your state board of nursing's website by tomorrow evening. Stop worrying so much. Everyone's case is different.

For example, I took NCLEX on May 11th. Although my issue date for the RN licensure was May 12th, I wasn't aware of this fact until May 13th. After all, May 13th was when my brand new license number appeared online. Be aware that it takes 48 hours for most state boards of nursing to update their information.

What makes me worried is that my friend who took in on the 27th had her results within 22 hours.....we are going on almost 48 hours. (2pm Tuesday I took it)....I am definetely paying for the quick results at 2pm...if they are available and I hope they are!
