Each state is different in how quick or slow they process stuff, remember once CGFNS forward your stuff you still need to wait for the BON to give eligibility to sit NCLEX. When did you apply to CGFNS? What have you applied for with CGFNS? and which state are you applying to?

Usually it takes approx 4 months to get eligibility to sit NCLEX and this includes both CGFNS and state involvement. Sometimes it can be quicker but not by much
