I passed, How long does it for the licensing process in CA?

How long will it take for me to get my license? Or for my license to be posted on BVNPT of CA?

Even though you passed NCLEX, you have not been issued a license number yet, because California does not issue license numbers until they have cashed the $120 check that you will be sending to the BVNPT.

If you have not done so already, mail the $120 check or money order into the BVNPT as soon as possible. Once they cash the check, your license number will appear online on the BVNPT's website.

I understand that, which I did. But of course my license should be posted online before I actually get it in the mail correct? So what im asking is, how long after sending my payment should i see it posted online?

It took about a month to get the card in the mail from the Calif board. When I renewed my licence, each time it took 3 - 4 weeks to get the card. Your name will be posted on the board's site before you receive the card.
