how long for license?

Hi there!  I hold an RN License in the state of michigan and am planning a move to the Cincinnati area.  I applied for my ohio license this past week...how long does it typically take to process?

Hi! I can't answer this question exactly as I've never gone through the reciprocity process in Ohio, but I do live here. I know it can take 4-6 weeks, but I've heard of it taking less time as well.

Hi shehak20000! I applied for a RN license by endorsement in Ohio as well, in March this year 2021. How long did your license end up taking? It has been 4 weeks and my license status just says submitted and hasn’t changed. I am getting worried because I have a job and I’ll be devastated if I get terminated because the Ohio board doesn’t approve my application in time. Their phone line is not active right now because of the pandemic and no one will respond to my emails, so I’m at a loss. I would appreciate any help you can provide!
