Texas BON- How long to wait for permanent license in mail?

Published

It has been two weeks I have passed RN-NCLEX from Texas Board of Nursing. I have been looking my mail box on a daily basis, but It hasn't arrived yet. Can someone please tell what is the approximate timeframe Texas BON sends original RN Licensure Card ? I can see my name under BON website as RN.

Texas does not issue a paper license anymore. You can print one from the verification page.on the BON website.

The Texas Board of Nursing stopped sending licensure cards to LVN/RN licensees in September 2008 in a concerted effort to curb identity fraud. In other words, your licensure card will never arrive via mail...

If you want a card, you can print a copy directly from the Texas BON website and arrange for it to be laminated.
