RN License endorsement to California

Published

For foreign graduates, has anyone tried endorsing your license to California recently? Did you still take the required units for your deficiencies?

I just submitted my application last month. I received the cards for fingerprinting. I'll mail it back soon. Seems like RN Cali board is slow to process unlike other practice.

Did you guys get your CA license yet? My endorsement application was approved last June. I waited 2 months and 2 weeks from the date I submitted the application. I didn’t receive any deficiency from my evaluator (I didn’t even get to know who my evaluator was). I just uploaded everything they might ask from me while waiting for them to review my application.

They didn’t ask me that. I just uploaded a copy of my PRC license (they accepted even if it’s expired) and also my Certificate of Passing the Board. If you have those, upload it in Breeze and contact your evaluator to have the verification of license/diploma waived.

Do you know who your evaluator is? This might be helpful. Search in fb group and join, California Board of Nursing -  Foreign Graduates.

Did you send your transcripts and breakdown of education from directly from your school or went through CGFNS?

I didn’t use CGFNS when I endorsed my RN license from Florida to California. I requested the transcript and education breakdown from my school in the Philippines and the school mailed it to CA BON.
