Hey Everyone, I'm pretty new to the site but I'm hoping I'll get some help regarding the process to get licensed in California. I am a Canadian RN and have been working as an RN for the last two years. I belonged to the last batch to write the CRNE (the Canadian Licensing exam before it was changed to the NCLEX). My boyfriend has been in California for the last year and I am looking to get transferred there. However, I am facing a whole plethora of problems. There is the whole SSN issue, not to mention me having to write my NCLEX. I'm looking for some guidance. I have been researching and it seems like the best way to get a license in California is to get licensed in another state then get endorsed in California. I had sent them my transcripts about 6 months ago but, haven't heard anything from the Board. I'm also not sure how to go about writing my NCLEX (if it would be better for me to write it in the states vs in Canada). Any information or suggestions you have will be appreciated.

Hey mack32 just wondering whether you were able to finally get a job in California?

Hi @hellomoto I have the same questions as you do regarding the licensure. Just wondering whether you're working in California now? How long does the process take in general?
