I had paid my $200 for the application fee for NJ BON. I think right after the application reciept comes up, there is a checklist stating all the things you have to do/send yadda yadda - on the bottom of that list is an address to send all the materials to: PO Box 47010 Newark, NJ 07101. Around 2 weeks ago, I sent off my passport photo, copy of my birth certificate and copy of my reciept. After a little frustration today I researched the BON and found out the address I sent my info to is COMPLETELY WRONG! I haven't gotten a "return to sender" or anything like that. I am truely starting to worry. This is greatly delaying my testing process and I am worried that my info is in some random stranger's hands. I really don't know what to do!!

Could it be possible that the PO box listed on the application is the specific address where they collect the application materials? This address might differ from the BON's main address. Just a guess.... I would call to see if they have received your materials and run the address by them.

Did you call the BoN? Did you check online to see if you have a pending license?(only means that your application is in the system)
Thanks guys, the BON has 8 million different addresses. They have my materials...now they're just dragging their feet.
