I am from Nebraska and had no idea how California's processing time worked. This is what I have learned.
I applied 4/20/16 RN NCLEX (at least that was when the check as cashed, and that is what they go by) since then I have been patiently waiting for them to give me my ATT. By reading these forums I found out that they change the application date on BREZZE if your application is being processed. This week 8/15/16. My application date has been changed and I should receive my ATT in about a week.
I HIGHLY recommend that you go to Sacramento to check on your application status. I went one day only to find out that my fingerprint scan was not correctly done and that I needed a new one. I had no idea. Bad part, they can't pull up the file so I hope all of your transcripts are coming directly from the school themselves. They won't accept it any other way.
Hope this helps!
They are a little farther along than what the processing times are. Once the date changes on the application status, something good will be happening soon. Here's my timeline: applied 04/18/16, graduated 06/18/16, waited, waited, waited.....waited, 8/5/16 my date (formerly 4/18/16) changed to 8/5, ATT on 8/8/16, took the NCLEX 8/11/16, got my results posted early AM on 8/13/16. So, it took nearly 4 months from the date of my application submission (it was online so the payment was immediately rendered) to getting my ATT. The pressure was immense because I am slated to start an RN residency program on 9/6 and my license was required by 8/26. I was getting to the point I simply couldn't wait any longer (adding to the fact that the information was steadily rotting away in my brain and I was getting closer and closer to the point of over-studying!). Luckily, everything slid in at the last minute and I crushed the test. But, I am definitely zonked from the pressure and the stress. It's just wacky at the board with no sign of them improving anytime soon.
Good luck to you!

How long does the CA BRN take to send ATT? My check was cashed by the BRN on 7.5.16, I'm going to assume that's when my application was processed. When i log into the Breeze system it says RN-application pending/open. I know they have process dates on the BRN website but multiple people have said that is is not accurate, that they are further along than those dates.
