My dear Nurses i just want to ask about my registration problem in Pearson vue....
yesterday (August 11, 2013) i finished my registration for NCLEX exam in Pearson Vue and I received the confirmation of the payment.. but the Problem is My complete name did not appear in the Envoice/Receipt, supposedly, my complete name is NESTOR ARNADO SALAZAR JR.. during filling-up the application form online, i finished it correctly, "there is an area in the form that ask for a SUFFIX, then i write JR in that area because as I know JR is a suffix then after completing the registration process I received the COnfirmation Recipt to my email and I saw that my name is not complete, it appears only NESTOR ARNADO SALAZAR,,,,, The "JR" did not appear..
All of my documents submitted in the state including the CES report that JR are present.
My question is,,,,
1.) Can i still take the exam if my name that appear in ATT will have no JR? and all of my valid ID including passport and license have JR. ,,
2.) Does the Testing Center will allow me to take the exam even there is a lacking part of my Identification??
if someone read this,, please I need your advice what to do because i'm worried about this simple mistake....

I know how it feels to "wait and wait" for an answer. Unfortunately, I am unable to tell you if the "suffix" is a concern or not when sitting for NCLEX.
The BEST advice is to contact your local BON. I know you would have liked an immediate and definitive answer.

I would suggest you contact the state's BON directly and ask them if you will be allowed into the testing center. I know usually, the board of nursing requires your name to appear the same on your application as your NCLEX registration before they will send you the Authorization to test.
Thank you,, i will try to call tomorrow....

I'd call Pearson Vue also. Since their form asked for the suffix and didn't 'register' it on their confirmation receipt.
I already received my ATT today... and it is written like this NESTOR ARNADO SALAZAR JR.,,, but the problem is my passport and all valid ID are written like this NESTOR JR ARNADO SALAZAR...... did the pearson vue will accept me to take the exam? because of the misplacement of the JR? please help me,,, because i dont have balance in my phone to call to Pearson VUE about this matter.. anyone an help me ????

I believe they only look at first and last name on the ATT
[h=3]Name[/h]The first and last name printed on your identification must match exactly the first and last name printed on your Authorization to Test (ATT) letter. If the name with which you registered is different from the name on your identification, you must bring legal name-change documentation to the test center on the day of the test.
