I took my NCLEX last Saturday, 8/31. I understand that wasn't even a full week ago BUT I've read many posts here when people who have found out they passed (which I paid to find out on Monday night!) by simply logging on to their BON website and searching for their licensure. I've been logging onto my NY BON all week and I'm not up there yet. It's kind of making me feel as if maybe I didn't pass. I would like to start working but don't I need my license number to do so?
What's going on with NY BON not updating their website? How long would it take via mail?

You can start to apply for employment. The sites where you apply have access to obtain your license number. They have to assign you a number and depending on where you live it can take up to 3-4 weeks.
Wow that sounds like forever. But thank you!
Actually not so much forever. After work today I checked again and there I was in all my licensed glory
