Got denied by California; now license holder for NV, is reciprocity possible?

Published

Hello..

I'm a foreign grad and applied to CA BON last year for the NCLEX RN. I was denied for the ATT due to concurrency issues, so I applied to NV. But my documents for CA, will still be valid for around 2 more years I believe. I then took the NCLEX for NV just days ago, and am now an RN. Thank God. But now I'm wondering if ever anyone is on the same boat I am. I wanna know if ever there's a chance that we can convert that licensure by exam application into reciprocity application. And so if that happens, are they gonna ask for the deficient courses again? If so, I take those courses, am I gonna be able to hold a CA license through reciprocity? Thank you so much.

i was denied for my ATT last year so I moved to PEnnsylvania and passed NcLEX. Now I have My RN license in PA and VA. will Cali still deny my application for endorsement? I saw one of their requirements Online is my transcirpt which probably will be the issue again. Help! i really want to move back to West coast again

What country is your nursing license from? When did you graduate with your BSN?

Hi Konoha! Did you graduate from Philippines? Did BON in NV require you to pass TOEFL? thanks!

I think Konoha got his NV license endorsement over prior to the time that the NV BON changed to having a provide the local country nursing license (Jan. 2013) and the change over with the English requirements which was mentioned by others which went into effect as of May, 2013.

NV also started to strongly enforce the concurrency earlier this year, someone had even posted their denial letter here, but that was in Aug. 2012, so I think the BON was testing the waters of denials. It really depends on your transcripts evaluation.

Hi!I am from California right now and graduate in the Philippines on May 2023.I applied in Ca BON but got denied due to concurrency issues.They're asking me to make up the Obstetric and Pediatric nursing here in California.

now,I'm just planning to apply in Nevada state..Do I have to do the live scan again or I can just use the live scan that I submitted when I applied to California BON. How did your Nevada application go?was it easy ?

hope to hear from you.
thanks ,
