NCLEX-RN (CA) concern.

Published

I already passed my NCLEX-RN (California) last October 2008 and this Sept., 2011 my license would be destroyed already. What does it mean? Do I have to retake the exam again? However, I learned that there is a reciprocity law and I'm already on my process for my reciprocity to Vermont but I haven't pass my IELTS yet (which is a requirement). What if I wasn't able to meet the requirement for Vermont until Sept., 2011. Would my file in California still be destroyed? Thank you. ;-/

best bet is contact the BRN and ask them what happens and get it in writing

so, does it mean that I have to retake the exam again or I just need to re-process my my papers again? thanks.

you only need to re-process your papers. no need to re-take the nclex-RN exam according to ms. ********* of CA-BRN =)

"an applicant, who has passed the nclex-rn exam and is affected by file abandonment and file destruction, still has the following options:

once the valid u.s. social security number is obtained, the applicant may submit a new application for licensure (and required supporting documents: a new application for licensure by examination; transcript from school; the fingerprint clearance and a valid u.s. ssn) to the brn. currently, the applicant will not have to retest, because even though the original file is abandoned and destroyed, the nclex-rn test result is still valid.""

I just took my IELTS last Aug. and I don't have any problem in my written exams L:9 R: 6.5 W: 6 but my speaking is 6.5. I'm planning to go for the rechecking process... should I take the risk? Secondly, I already have my NCSBN report that I passed my NCLEX-RN, does it guarantee that my files won't be destroyed anymore in CA even I don't provide them a SSN? Coz, it will expire next month already(October 2011). thank you for your help. Godbless
