I passed BUT my name is not on my state board site!! Help!!

Published

According to Pearson Vue website, i passed. BUT when i search my name under licensee lookup on my states website, my name does not come up.. So does this mean i still passed or have they not updated the state's site yet?? A friend of mine passed a couple of weeks ago & her name came up on the state's website before she could even view the results at pearson vue. I am confused.. I already told EVERYONE that i passed.. Please someone help me figure out what the deal is!

What state did you apply for licensure? Do you have a SSN? Some states do not declare you on their website when you do not have a SSN like California. If you want to be sure, just wait for your results in the mail. Just be patient and think positive. ;)

It depends which state you are in. I took my NCLEX-PN exam in California 12/23/09 and I didn't see my name on the BVNPT website until 01/27/10. That's a little over a month.

If according to the Pearsonvue Trick you passed. There's a 99% chance that you did pass according to the trick.

Meanwhile, relax and just wait! I have a feeling you passed!

I actually paid for my quick results & it said passed... There is no way that is wrong, right?? & yes i have a SS#. I live in SC. & like i said another girls name popped up on Board site the day she passed which was on a saturday. So i'm just frustrated. i told the DON where i worked that i passed, so i could start my new job & she can't verify because my name isnt under licensee lookup on the BON site.

Pearsonvue quick results are just the unofficial results the official results come from the BON and that can take a bit longer. Some states will post faster than pearsonvue. If unofficial results are passed then they don't change, you just need to give the BON time to post.

Just be patient because as you know the state board list is the one that counts.
