Question About Transferring RN License

Published

Specializes in Med-Surg, Developmental Disorders.

Hello, all. I am a Registered Nurse from Texas, which is a Compact Licensure State. I moved to New Hampshire (another Compact Licensure State) a while back and am practicing here in NH. My license is up for renewal in September 2021. Since I am in a Compact State, how would I transfer my license to NH in order to renew it here? Or would I have to transfer it at all, since I have a Compact License? 

Thanks in advance. 

If you are planning on remaining in NH, you should apply for licensure by endorsement.  If you relocated to NH, you should have done so at the time of your relocation.  You would have been allowed to on your TX license while your NH license was being processed.  Once you received your NH license your TX license would have been placed on inactive status.

Best wishes.
