I'm a RN in Pennsylvania and am in the process of applying for endorsement. I went to college in PA so I got my license there. I have been reading literally every single thread on this website to gain more information about this process. While the posts have been helpful I still have some questions and would appreciate you sharing your experience.
Here is what my online checklist looks like:

I literally call these people twice a week. Every time it is something different. I need this license number ASAP so I can work. I found a contact name but no number or email, I even checked the printable application like someone mentioned.
I have read so many posts about driving up to Newark and I am more than willing to do that. Will I be successful with my checklist looking like this? When I get there what do I say? I plan to drive up there sometime this week and hopefully will leave with a license. I appreciate your comments so much.
I know im late with this one but I let my license lapse , moved to NC and hurricane Florence wiped out everything we owned, so moved back. Like a fool I let my lic. lapse. Its been over a month since I mailed my paperwork in, still no answer from the board, they give me a different story everytime I call. Finally called governors office and spoke to someone and they are supposed to call me back tomorrow. Fingerprints are up to date, I have 3 unencumbered licenses in NC AZ and PA may to travel nursing until Jersey gets it act together.
