Retaking NCLEX Process?

Unfortunately, I failed my first attempt at 145 questions, I was wondering what the process was to retake the NCLEX? I live in Illinois; do I have to contact IDFPR to resend my fingerprints to Continental Testing? How long until my ATT arrives? 

Thank you

Procedures for RETAKING the NCLEX:
• You must apply online with CTS at www.continentaltesting.net and pay their application fee
You must wait until you receive your official result letter from CTS in order to reapply to CTS, if you do not wait until you receive your official result letter, your application will NOT be processed.
o If the retake is during the initial three-year application period, you will NOT have to resubmit the ED-NUR and fingerprint receipt with your new application
o If the retake is after the initial three-year application period, that application is EXPIRED. You must submit a NEW application along with NEW supporting documents including the ED-NUR, a new fingerprint receipt, and proof of completion of a NCLEX Review Course.
• Register with Pearson Vue Professional Testing online at www.pearsonvue.com/NCLEX/ or by calling 866-496-2539 (US & Canada) and pay their fee
• Wait until you receive an Authorization to Test (ATT) from Pearson VUE Professional Testing that will contain the necessary information to schedule yourself for this examination. The ATT eligibility lasts for 90 days only. You must take the exam within those 90 days or reapply with a new fee.
• Once you receive your ATT, schedule your NCLEX examination appointment through the NCLEX Candidate Web Site www.pearsonvue.com/NCLEX or by calling NCLEX Candidate Services at 866-496-2539.

You may sit for the NCLEX examination once every 46 days.

ATT eligibility lasts for 1 year....at least in California.
