Pennsylvania Board of Nursing

Hey y'all,

I'm a new grad and moving to Pittsburgh in January. I submitted my licensing application a few months ago and I was finally notified that I had some errors. When I resubmit with the correct things, will I be able to get a temporary license to work immediately? It took them over three months to tell me I had errors, I'm afraid that it will take another few months to see that I'm ok and give me a temporary license.

They wanted a State Background Check instead of local, no transcripts sent to them yet, and missing Child Abuse CE)

I already got my state background check, and my school isn't sending transcripts until after graduation in three days. I'm looking to see if I can take this CE course in New Orleans while I'm still here.

Thank you for your help! I appreciate it very much!

Hello I am an out of state applicant for PA nursing. My state fingerprints were rejected because they were electronic. Does anyone know the code to write on fingerprint cards so that they will be sent to PA? I tried contacting the board, but I have gotten no response. My school is also not mailing transcripts currently due to COVID, so I don't know what to do.
