I would say that depends on you and what you decide. Have seen some keep both active until sorted with a job.

Some people keep both licenses in case something comes up where they would need the LVN license. Was in a group interview one time where five RNs said each one still had their LVN license active.

Never let a license go, you never know what the future will bring. It is possible that someday there will be an LVN job available but no RN job at a time when you desperately need a job.
