Endorse to texas CES expired from vermont

Published

my license from vermont has expired and I need to endorse to texas. my CES has already expired, do i need to repeat the whole process to endorse to texas or does cgfns still have the documents i sent them before, so that i can order for visa screen. do you still need CES or just the visa screen? for texas

thanks

I don't think you can use an expired license to apply for licensure by endorsement, you would need an active, valid license (if I'm wrong about that, I'm happy to be corrected).

First, you can't endorse an expired license. You must renew your VT license before you can endorse to TX.

As far as whether CGFNS still has your documents you need to contact them directly. They do not archive your documents infinitely. Only a few months post expiration of credential validation unless you paid for them to retain your credentials.

First renew your VT license. If not active and valid there is no license to endorse. Then contact CGFNS regarding your documents

If your license is expired you have nothing to endorse.

Hi JustBeachyNurse! So, i guess we don't have a choice but to just wait for our PD to become current & be eligible for a visa. Am i right? Or, will having an inactive usrn lic be a problem during the visa interview? Will the updated visascreen be enough? Thanks JustBeachyNurse!

I believe proof of passing NCLEX is all that is needed for a visa screen. VT BoN should be able to provide CGFNS that information when processing your visa screen You need an active nursing license to work as well as a valid work visa. USCIS I'm sure is aware of the issues in obtaining and maintaining a valid US professional license without a valid SSN (not only nurses are affected by the federal mandate)

Thanks. I dont have a problem actually w/ my visascreen coz its already updated. My problem is the inactive/expired USRN lic. But i know that i can renew it anytime once i have an ssn. During the visa interview, will the consul look for an active usrn lic? Or will my updated visascreen be enough to be able to get a visa?
