Plan to move in Texas. Help

Hey guys! I would like to ask for advice. I have a friend who passed the nclex test in New Mexico. She reaching out for help. Currently she's living in California and now plans to move to Texas for some personal reason. She's a foreign graduate and does not have experience. Can she avail the reciprocity? coz from what I heard Texas and NM is part of the compact state. Is there any possibility she will be approve by the Texas BON?

You're replies are highly appreciated! Thank you! :)

    I believe New Mexico is a compact state. The only exam i know of that shed have to take, is the Jurisprudence test, and its online and open book. However it is time limited.

    She can always call the texas board.

    The only way her NM license is compact is if she is a permanent resident of NM. She has to apply for license by endorsement in TX. If you are not a permanent resident of the compact state your license is a single state license. Only the NCLEX is reciprocal. You would need to endorse the NM license and meet whatever TX BoN requires of internationally educated nurses.

    Can she be endorsed in the Texas BON even though she is a foreign graduate and doesn't have experience but passed the NCLEX in the state of NM? She just graduated last year April. Thank you for your reply on my post! :)

    Thank you for information you shared! Can my friend apply for endorsement in the state of Texas even though she doesn't have an experience? plus she is a foreign graduate.

    Your friend needs to contact the Tx BON for answers to her situation.

    This may be off topic...and probably frowned upon, but warn her that she must be careful discussing issues such as abortion, evolution, education, healthcare for the poor etc...etc...does she know where she really is going? Perhaps as a nurse on the "front lines" she can be a much needed guiding light!
