New York BON Posting License 2023 After Passing NCLEX

[M Senpai]

Hey Everyone ? 

Took my NCLEX on 02/22/23 in the AM, and got the good pop-up 1hr, 2hrs, 4hrs, 6hrs, and 24hrs after my exam end time. Got quick results on 02/25/23 in the AM. Now awaiting New York State BON to post my license as several hospitals will not start processing my application without the posting. I know the website says 6-8 weeks to see your license posted but, has anyone gotten it earlier in 2023? Also, when they say posting, do they mean that you can search up your name on the BON website or you get an email? If you applied for NYS Licensure, are you able to view your licensure on any other BON site? Didn't realize how much of a waiting game everything is. 

 

Any info or advice would be much appreciated!

I took my NYC NCLEX on 11/8 and got my quick result on 11/10/2023 and I passed. :) Did you get a mail about your license? Do you have any update? Thank you so much!

They mail it in like two or three weeks. I passed late August and got my license mid-September. My license number was posted online (NYC's site was faster than Nursys for me) like three days before I received the physical copy in the mail.

I got my license in the mail within the month of passing the NCLEX. Your license number is posted online before that, therefore you can apply to hospitals with that number. You can look it up on the NYS licensing site. At hiring they ask you to bring your physical license in for confirmation. There's usually a good enough turnaround in getting the physical copy from the state vs pre-onboarding that it's not an issue to apply before you receive the physical copy.
