You'll find a lot of informations regarding Licensure Examination in New Mexico.

New Mexico for some reason became a fad destination for some Filipino RN applicant. Well, New Mexico BON admitted they are overwhlemed by the number of applicants thereby slowing down the process. My sister had been waiting for her eligibility for 4-5 months and when it finally arrived she immediately received her ATT. I heard (i know this out of topic but it is a good thing to know) that in CA your eligibility comes in much earlier however securing an ATT is the drawback, so they say. At any rate, just concentrate in answering NCLEX type questions and by the time it arrives you are so much ready. Good luck.

Even if you go to Ca they do not give a license without a SSN, a few more states are following this now, and they do their own evaluation. Ca after 3 years will destroy your file if you haven't provided a SSN, they may extend annually but no guarantee. If a is not going to be your destination then you need to meet new BON requirements which in the end will involve more money, this is why in most cases we recommend you go to the state that you will be working as with retrogression there is no rush

To the OP ATT is released by pearsonvue once they receive OK from BON/BRN and mosts states apart from New York take on average 3-6 months, NY takes 6-12 months average appears to be 8 months due to CVS
