How long for license in different state to go through?

Published

Hi nurse friends!

I'm currently licensed in PA (just renewed it) but I'm looking to move to Rhode Island this winter. I submitted the verification of license/endorsement form from Pa back in July and did the fingerprints for RI in August. Right now, my RI license info says 'pending'. Just curious if anyone has an idea of how long it typically takes for the license info to go through and become official?

Thanks!

Sadly, this is going on in our state: https://www.pennlive.com/news/2019/09/pa-nurses-fed-up-with-delays-and-rude-answers-dealing-with-state-licensing-board.html

I do recommend calling the board itself.
