NY BON application time period

Published

I am an international nurse. I had applied for CVS CGFNS and it took me around 14 months to issue my report to NY BON. I was really frustrated of calling to CGFNS . Finally i got my report issued in November 10th. I am waiting for NY BON to give me an eligibility since then. I got an email yesterday telling me to send scan copy of my transcript which has been missed. I promptly emailed them my transcript. But i am so much worried.... do i have to wait for more time?? I was wondering how come they missed my transcript? They must have got it from CGFNS, right?? Have anyone got that kinda email from NY BON??? Will i have to wait more time like CGFNS?? Plz help me..!!

Sometimes CGFNS do not get all documents and usually at 6 month stage everything gets sent to the BON and they review and depending on how complete application is will depend on response of the BON. If docs requested and sent then it may be another 4 weeks for review before decision finally made

Hey Smitha.

Apologies for the late reply..haven't been too social lately..hehe

By received the letter from BON you mean, the eligibility? If yes, I'm guessing it's valid for a good year. And only once you get your ATT, you have a validity of 4 months.

How long did your whole NY BON process take? I remember you mentioning that CGFNS had mailed your evaluation on Nov 10th, right?
