Just passed nclex-pn. I got quick results on 6-19-08. I know I have to wait on something in the mail. How long will it take and what am I waiting on besides the License? Can I use LPN when signing my name? Do I have to pay any more money for anything? If applying for a job what do I say my title is?

Thank you.

Not sure about Illinois, but I got my pass results on the same day. Took the test 6-17-08, and I received my license in the mail this past Mon. I had heard it can take 4-6 weeks. You can sign LPN, you're licensed! You should be able to go to the BON and verify your license and get your number. At least here in TX I can. It showed up the day I got my quick results 6-19-08. CONGRATS!:D
