thank you guys for the replies. :) i got in touch with the California Board of Nursing and I was instructed to reprint the page with the box that requests temporary license and mail it to them with the $50 check. They say as soon as FBI clears my fingerprint card, they will issue my temporary license as early as next week.

Hi guys! Just joined allnurses tonight :) I'm an RN from Illinois, 2 weeks ago I sent all requirements to California BRN for a California permanent license request. I was planning to move to CA in August so I didn't request a temporary license when I sent my request, figured I have enough time before the move, (bad idea!). Now, I found out I can move earlier to CA than originally planned so I'm wondering if I request a temporary license now if I have to go through the same steps again that I did for the permanent license or is there a way I can make the request without having to go to Sacramento and filling up the same forms. Thanks for the help.
