Published

Specializes in emergency surgery.

Hi. I took my NCLEX yesterday. Does anyone know how I might be able to get results quicker than a month?? I think I will go crazy if I have to wait that long!! Are there any websites I can check or anything? How long does California usually take with results?

Thanks. :uhoh21:

Go to the CA BRN website, and there is a feature to check for RN Licenses. Keep entering your name every day till it show up with RN next to it! I've heard it usually takes 2 days-1 week. Good Luck!:balloons:

Big difference if it is for the LVN license, or if the nurse is from another country and does not have a SSN#.

For the LVN license: CA will issue a letter stating whether or not the tester passed. That usually takes about three weeks to get. If you passed, then the bill for the license is included and it needs to be paid before the license will be issued. This is very different from most other states. That is why you never seen the name immediately up on the website, the license has not been paid for so not issued.

For the RN license: Average wait in CA is ten days to see your name on their website. Three days is the earliest. And can take up to about a month, even for Americans.

For those that do not have a SSN#: License is not issued, only a letter stating that they have passed, and this is not even sent out until about 2 1/2 weeks from the testing date.

Just be patient and try not to focus to much on it. I know that is easier said than done and I am sure I will be the same way in a couple of weeks. Just know that you did well even if you did reach the 265th question. My prayers are with you!! Oh and CONGRATS:balloons:

If you do not have a SSN#, then you will be waiting about one month to get a letter from the BRN. They do not even mail out the letter until about 2 1/2 weeks after testing. You will not see your name on their website until you can provide them with a SSN#.

Best of luck to you.:balloons:
