TBON enforcement without fee

I am feeling very defeated at the moment and really need some words of wisdom and experience. I recently got accepted into nursing school and I should be starting in August. I did my fingerprints on May 27 and about a month later I received a letter from the BON stating that I had a negative incident come up. I had to go to the courthouse and get official records (over ten years ago I wrote a bad check to Kroger, which I paid off that same year and it was dismissed) and write a letter explaining what had happened. 29 days later I received a letter stating that they were sending my case to enforcement to be investigated and takes a minimum of 90 days. I am so devastated and heartbroken. I can not start school until I have the official approval from the BON. My question is, has anyone had anything like this happen to them? Has anyone been through this process and it NOT take 90+ days? I've read countless threads and I'm honestly terrified. I don't know what I will do with myself if I can't start this August. I really need some guidance. Thank you in advance!

    I was in the exact situation with Texas BON. I graduated June 25, '15 and submitted my application May 20th online. I received a letter advising that my CBC had a positive hit for a Misdemeanor from 2004. I had to submit court documents showing that I didn't receive this charge and the case was dismissed. I had to file a Declaratory Order which was sent June 2. It was sent to Operations Dept June 17th and I received a letter stating my file was being sent to Enforcement Department for non-disclosure. I didn't have to pay the $150 fee either. My file was in review for 33 days and approved without stipulations. However I never received my letter. I called TBON yesterday and I was told my letter was never mailed holding up my ATT. The rep was very helpful and sent an email to Customer Service requesting a letter to be mailed and I was told it would take 5 business days. I received my ATT within 3 hours of that call. So stay positive that the process is stressful but can take less then 90 days
