Update to my statement of warning Is since getting approved and working with other nurses I have found out that others that have endorsed to OK with squeaky clean records have also been subject to long waiting periods the fastest so far has been 6 Months!
One nurse has good standing Nursing license in 4 other states and took her almost 7 months to get her approval, and her record is clean.
It was told to me this state takes the longest of any other state to process your endorsement application, according to others that have applied to more than one state for endorsement.
Just be aware that this process of Endorsement can take you several months to get approved, just want to inform people. Do not believe the 2 week statement on the application for endorsement.

I endorsed into Oklahoma without a criminal history and received my permanent license in about a month. The OBN also returns my phone calls within 24 hours, which is actually prompter than any other board of nursing that I have ever dealt with.
