How to get an initail New Jersey license

Published

Hi. Can anyone please help me?

I have passed the NCLEX in nov 2006. I received my SSN a couples of days upon arrival. I am now here in Maryland. I want to get my license in New Jersey. I called the NJ BON and they told me to fill up a new application (licensure by examination) just to update like my address because I have had my exam in 2006. My questions are:

1. Is this really the process? From what I've gathered, I only have to give my SSN to NJ BON to process my license

2. Do I need to submit again all the documents specified in the application form?

Is anybody on the same situation?

If NJ have said that they need you to submit new application then you have to do it

Hi. May I know if u got your New Jersey License? I am on similar situation as you before, passed my nclex exams in 2007 but was not issued a license because I had no SS number. I was told to send a new application all together. Did you get ur license? How long did it take? Did you have to submit a credential evaluation report? I hope you can help me.
