License Posted?

Published

Anyone in Georgia know how long it takes for your license number to post? And what site is best to check for license posted?

I took my test at 2pm and my license was posted before noon the following day. Same for all my friends, regardless of if they took it at 8 or 2.

Where are you looking for it?

Doubtful they'll post on the weekend, though. Pearson Vue posts quick results on the weekend, but I feel like the GABON does not... I could be wrong.

Thanks! That's where I've been looking. It's still not posted. I took it Thursday and got quick results. Says I passed so just waiting to see my license post.

Call them on Monday to be safe! A friend of mine passed, but for some reason they no longer had a scan of her drivers license, so she had to send it again.

Congrats on passing! Welcome to the new GA RN fam :)

I passed NCLEX-RN but it takes NJ 7-10 days to get results from exam and up to 15 days to post a license number. You people that get their license numbers within a week are so lucky. NJ BON just has so much red-tape and/or understaffed. SMH

The ridiculous part is that all Boards of Nursing get their results from Pearson Vue electronically, IOW, a maximum of 24 hours after the test is done (whenever it's finalized, but definitely by 24 hours) they DO have those results. Yet because of human inefficiency, it can take days or weeks before results are updated on the websites. :( Makes you want to offer to work there just to get the process moving faster!

NJ requires all completed applications to be approved by board committee. One can take the NCLEX prior to background check completion so passing the NCLEX is not a license guarantee

I forgot this piece! Thanks for the reminder.

I remember a recent post from someone who was annoyed that he hadn't yet received a license number, that his application was still being reviewed. He wondered why it hadn't been reviewed prior to allowing him to test; fact is that if someone fails the NCLEX there is no point in going through the trouble of reviewing the application. Just checking that all the pieces have been submitted is all that some States do prior to the ATT. AFTER the candidate passes, then they figure out if they want to issue a license.
