License endorsement

Hi everyone, so i'm thinknig of applying for license endorsement in 3 states at same time. What do i put down for license check when i ask what states do i hold licenses in? i plan to mail them all out same time BUT if one states processes application faster then I'd have had a license that i didn't put down on paper so in technically i'd have lied on my license application. At the moment I only have my home states' license NY.

QUESTION is do i put only what license i have on hand now OR list the other 3 states i'm aiming for licensure and write down just mailed?

Is New York a compact state? Why do you need a license in 3 states? Do you plan to travel nurse? My reccommendation would be to obtain residency in a compact state and see where that gets you career wise. :-)

I'm needing to go out of state to look for work as theres nothing for new grads in nyc so i am considering 4 states (NJ, CT, AK, TX). It seems that these days i'd need a license from thtat state before applying for work.

Hmm .. do i have to move to a compact state first? then declare that as my home state and ask for endorsement as compact? Heh thing is i'm literally stuck in NY until i've a job offer while i have family in a compact state
