Hi Everyone!I will be relocating to California due to my partner being transferred there for work. He starts at the end of June. I work as an FNP in a FQHC in AZ and already gave notice. Now I need to start the job hunt and transfer my licenses. My question is: Can I apply for the RN and NP endorsement at the same time? Or do I need to apply for the RN license first, and then the NP license? I'm nervous this could take 6 months if I have to wait for the RN license first (10-12 week wait listed on their website+4-8 week wait for the NP process). I've heard of people applying for them at the same time, but on the NP app there is a place for the CA RN license number. HELP! 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You also need an NP Furnishing License (for prescribing) and that can also be sent together with the other two. Leave the space thats asks for a CA RN license blank. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mar 22 by kgrl 32 Posts; 997 Profile Views Thank you so much!! And if I'm applying to all 3 at the same time, can I do the online application, or is there some reason the paper application is preferred? For the Furnishing license, it asks for the NP license information...do I leave that blank as well? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On the online application, does it let you submit without answering the CA RN and NP license question? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do so, as that will arrive quicker than the regular license. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
