Does anyone know if I be able to have 2 or more valid licenses in different states at the same time? Thank you.

Mar 14, 201016 yr Yes you can be licensed in 2 states concurrently. I have a Texas license and am applying for a NY license, the process practically requires me to jump through hoops, as well as pay +200 bucks
Mar 15, 201016 yr Once you a licensed in one state you can apply by endorsement in any other ones. Some states have compact agreements that recognize other states license also. I have license in 5 states because of travel nursing. Each state has fees, so be prepared to pay for each one.
Mar 15, 201016 yr You can have a licence in every state if you wish to! go to the state boards of nursing to find out how to get you licence by endorsement! Good Luck, and it will cost you some $$
