Moving back to Texas from UK

Published

Hi, I last worked as an RN in Texas in Aug 2019. I since then have been a registered nurse in the UK. I should have kept up my US license, but I didn't, so of course it is listed as delinquent and expired. 

Wondering if anyone knows the process of getting license reinstatement if you are no longer a resident where you trained and received your license. I believe I saw somewhere they might ask for proof of residency? 

Anyone have experience? Probably a long shot 🤪

Must have residency in TX in order to get a compact license from them; should be able to get TX single state without a Texas address-- will need to query BON if they will accept UK resident address until you reestablish home in TX. 

Best wishes with your move.

Why did you move to the UK? and what was the pay like over there? I've heard it's trash
