Hi everyone, I was wondering if there are still jobs for new grads/ADNs in North Dakota? Are there still a lot of jobs available there in general? I saw an article (I think it was wallet hub) that stated that North Dakota has enormous amounts of comp...

Get it expunged. Otherwise it may impede your ability to be accepted at clinical sites. It will also help you with jobs in the future. Use the maximum legal remedies your state allows. It looks responsible to the board and it will increase your abili...

Joacas, No one else can answer your question. It is your decision. If you are applying in Florida I think you will have an easy time getting your license. It really depends on the state. California is known to be among the worst. If your DUI was a m...

Agree that OP should wait the three months. It's really no time at all. Disagree it is "deceitful". The only way it is deceitful is if the OP lied about it. The OP has said he/she disclosed it. Absolutely not deceitful. It is looking at legal opti...

KelRN215, BSN, RN, I think you are correct that the OP has to complete probation prior to being issued a license in any state. I have not checked all the states but that seems reasonable. Frankly, three months is nothing. I don't agree that the OP ...

TriciaJ, RN, The meaning of "expungement" can vary from state to state. You are correct that a "true" expungement would delete all the records. Many state licensing boards, for example, still want you to let them know about expunged records. There ma...

I think the OP has lived with the consequences. He/she is simply trying to research the best option for his/her life and career. This is the intelligent and moral thing to do as we affect our families as much as we do ourselves. People fail to realiz...

Hi again, I reread your post carefully. Who hasn't had a traffic violation? Wow, I will never apply there. Unless, they just want you to disclose your record as an honesty test. Traffic records stay around almost indefinitely. Anyway, good luck.

Hi, First, I hope that isn't your true name you are using. If so, please change it right away for your sake. Second, I have never applied or know anything about that specific employer. I can only told what I know or have "heard" from others. Often o...

rambo33, You could do a search for the florida BON and read their instructions. You can apply in any state and take your NCLEX here in California. I would research several states and make sure you want to move there first. I am not sure but .15 mig...

TitoG, I think you will be treated "like a drug addict" with all the associated monitoring. There is a one-size-fits-all approach to the board's methods which can unfairly punish people excessively. It is what it is. If you have been a nurse for ove...

countryroad, I replied previously but for some reason it never showed up. It seems like you have a good plan. Thank you for sharing this story and please update so as to help another that may be in this kind of predicament. I wish great things for ...

CaliCalinurse, I'm sorry you have not yet heard anything about your license. Why do you think (if you have any idea) why you were only offered a probationary license in light of AB Bonta 2396?

ashhhnm, If the lady from enforcement told you that - hopefully you will have no problems. I don't know of an attorney and if I did tell you this post would be subject to the TOS policies on this website. I do know that there is a group called TAANA ...

Hi ashhhnm, I would consult an attorney who specializes in dealing with the BRN immediately. Your issue is probably not that it was reduced (assuming that was the case) but that it was an alcohol related conviction. (It doesn't matter to them if it w...

Did you get them expunged recently or a long time ago? Do you know if there is a time table between the processing of your expungement and the process of the courts updating the expungement? Sometimes it is 60-90 days. It might depend on the court o...

I'm looking for more information about this also...thought I would give it a bump! :)

I am still hunting for information. Anyone out there who has 2 duis and an unrestricted license in California?

Is there anyone out there from California with 2 duis that have benefited from AB Bonta (2396)? If so please share your story. I have read about people with multiple drug convictions over 10 years ago who have been pushed through after the passing o...

cphil21, Talk to an attorney about your options with your charges. The letter you received is very important in terms of mitigation. If you can't expunge can you get a pardon or a certificate of rehablitation? If you keep that letter and get it ce...

MyCityLights, You are welcome! It's easy for me to tell the truth when I truly believe something positive. Please, please let us know how it goes.

That is good advice to get your local history for the most accurate account of your crime. I would do so for your own piece of mind and possibly get an FBI check done also. However, don't they look for the same things as an LPN? I would think it wo...

Oh, I am so sorry about that. Typically you can get the court to certify any documents that you hold if they don't have them. Go back to your lawyer and ask him/her how you can go about getting certified copies of expungement order. If he/she has su...

Please let us know how it goes for you. Get it expunged anyway. It will help you with employment if you have that removed. Good luck!

...and a big oops about using California law. I realize you aren't from California. Got my posts crossed.
