I’ve been trying to Endorse my NY RN license for the state of GA and it has been hell. I actually cried with frustration. The entire process is a horror, from sending my application, to getting all 3 of my fingerprints rejected. I’m now waiting for BON to review my case. Base on my research it seem the next step is for them to do a name search and to my surprise it might take up 8 weeks. My application process expires on April 29. Which means I have to resubmit another application and start the entire process. I spent money, time and energy .
I needed to know if anyone else had went through this and I saw several nurses have. There has to be a better way for out of state nurses.
I plan on moving to GA this Summer even if I don’t have a License yet. And perhaps can do the endorsement there. I know I will not be able to work but I have saved enough to afford to be out of a job at least 3 months .
Please advise whenever it’s a good idea or should I wait for the move until I get my GA license.
Thank you
