i have a pending nclex registration, can i register another nclex exam

Published

TL;DR at end of paragraph.

1 year since i passed my registration for nclex to oregon bon,and i still havent received my att.btw im a a foreign nurse. basically i think it's my fault because in the nsg practice history in the application form i wrote an item which i thought should be included in my work experience (it turned out that it was a training program). since i was being paid, i thought y not just write it down. the BoN then emailed me to inform the hospital i worked for to send them documents that justify that i worked for them. the hospital said that they do not do this kinds of mailing services. so i mailed the BoN the certificate that i finished the said training program. i assumed the BoN did not acknowledge the certificate because again they sent me the same mail telling me to inform the hospital for the needed documents. so i told the bon that it was actually a training program and not work experience. still, the hospital would not send the needed documents. i told the BoN about this and even gave them the contact details of the hospital in hope that they could verify my training. the last email i got from them was about me still to tell hospital about the documents. after all the time ive been reviewing i think ive just wasted my time. frankly i think im done waiting for my registration to be approved. i took my 1st exam for california state about 4 years ago and i thought should i just get a retest there? is this possible? any advice on how to go further before i contact the california BoN?

TLDR: still no att because of missing documents i cant provide, hospital not willing to provide documents,BoN not willing to compromise, pending registration, can i apply a retest in a previous state i took the nclex 4 years ago?

If you go back to CA you may find you are affected by the concurrency issues that many face.

Also, any state BoN will tell you it is not their job to track down and sort out any contacts you give them. They only look at what supporting documentation you give them. If its not sufficient, they notify you so that you can get the info to them. That's your job

idk if u read my whole story but the bon wanted the hospital to send documents. the hospital said that they do not do this kind of mailing service so i sent the bon what the hospital gave me after my taining, which was a document stating that i was training under the hospital. bon did not acknowledge said document.

I read it. My comment is that the BoN will do nothing beyond what they've already done. It's not their job. I know it stinks, but its reality. Their take is, if YOU want it bad enough, YOU will do the work and follow up required. They have plenty laying on their collective plates to keep them busy. Oh, and no text speak please.
