It's usually not a problem. I was originally licensed in MA and obtained my NH license without a problem. The reciprocity agreements between most states make it pretty easy. I have not had a problem being licensed in VA and now TN where we are living currently.

Just to add it isn't reciprocity only the NCLEX has reciprocity. What you need to be looking for on BON website is Endorsement

I recently spoke with the MA BON regarding this. I was told that once you receive your LPN license in NH you can endorse it to MA. I said that I do not have the required amount of hours to take it in MA and was concerned; did I have to work for a specific amount of time or hours before endorsing and they said no. They told me to contact the Profession Creditional Services (www.pcvs.com). They told me it is up to the MA BON whether you can endorse. So I didn't get any solid info, but I hope that helps. I should know next week if I will be going to NH to take there boards.. Let me know how you make out.
