Timeline for endorsing RN license to CA

Published

I am interested to hear anyones experience in endorsing their license into CA. I used the online endorsement as well as the livescan fingerprinting. Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks

I contacted my school to get transcripts and was told that the easiest way to get my transcripts is to do it online-there is a website called "getmytranscript" I would supply the info and pay a fee and they will send it to the school, BON etc. I told her that I had a "request of transcript form" and she said its not needed as long as they have the address to where its being sent. Has anybody use the "getmy transcript" website to send their transcript to CA BON ?

I don't think my school uses "getmy transcript" but it's the same online process, but I could upload the "request of transcript form" as an attachment and they sent it with the transcript. Regardless of what your school says I am pretty positive that you need to have them send the form as well.

Thanks for your reply. I dont want to cause any delay so I will again look at the website to see if I can attach the request for transcripts form to it.

My check is not showing up as cashed yet despite the BRN telling me last Thursday that it had been deposited, I've checked my bank account online and by phoning my bank. I sent out my application on July 15th.

However, my application status is now visible on Breeze as "pending" with a submission date of 8/20/14. So it seems that they have at least put my application in their queue for processing (if this info is accurate). I'm ignoring the "Missing Education History" under the deficiencies tab per the advice of the BRN (upon my previous phone call).

Keeping fingers and toes crossed!

My still showing"No license information...."How did you sign up for account ? I just use my name and email to sign up an account.Are we supposed to use some application number or something?

I used that website. I printed out the transcript request form from the CA BON, filled my part out (I think it is the top part), and then scanned it to my computer as a pdf. On the getmytranscripts website is an option to upload forms, and during your transcript request process it will give you the option at some point to do so.

Once you are logged in click on "update profile" tab, then "add license." It will ask you to select license or application type via drop down bars. Enter DOB and last 4 digits of social security number. If you are in the system an "applications" section appears on the bottom left with "view application status" option underneath.

I spoke to someone at getmytranscripts because I didnt see an upload section and she suggested to call my college, I left a message and they called me and told me to go ahead and do the transcripts via getmyscripts and fax the request form to the college with a cover letter and transcripts order number to them and they will attach it to the transcripts. I will do that route but I am going back to see if there is an upload option.

It's the worst when you get 2 people from the same company telling you opposite info..:no: I called my college first and they sent me to getmytranscripts. When I called gmt, the guy on the phone told me about the form upload options and said that the option would show up during the transcript ordering process, and it did without any issues. If I remember correctly, the option does show later in the ordering process, not right away. You can upload a pdf file, not sure if you could update a .jpg as well. Hope that helped.

Just giving a little update..I sent my application and fingerprints to the CA BON on 7-28, according to the post office they got it on 7-30. I logged onto breeze with the instructions given by a previous poster. It showed my application submission date as 8-22. I just called the Cali Bon to confirm the info (not mentioning that I already had this info from Breeze), and she said that my money order had been cashed on 8-22. I called the 800 number on the money order receipt and it's still saying that it has not been cashed yet, but I'm assuming since the 22nd was Friday and it's only Tuesday that it will take a few more days to clear. So all in all it took 3 weeks and two days from the time I sent out my app and payment for them to even cash it and start my app process. Hopes this helps, I'll keep you guys posted on everything to follow ;)

Just as I thought, my money order took a little longer to clear..cashed by the board on 8-22, cleared on 8-26.
