Hi friends-- SOS is anyone else starting here who went to an out-of-state nursing school? I passed my (NC) NCLEX on Friday and just completed the application for endorsement. I am REALLY worried that my license will not be ready by our start date in March. Is anyone else in the same position? 

As I mentioned, I am doing the the CA license by endorsement process. I am transferring my NC license to CA and was wondering how long this process has actually taken people from the time you submit your Breeze application. The website says a 10-12 week processing time, but frankly I am stressed and freaking out. However, I have heard from some that it doesn't take that long so I am curious what you have experienced/ if anyone else is dealing with this right now. Furthermore, is anyone else worried about this communication requirement!? Thanks!! 

Average time frame I've seen and heard is about 2 months sometimes little less sometimes little more

That's why endorsements get temp license in the mean time but tricky part is getting hired with temp but the license number stays the same

Has anyone who got an offer from WV still not received their I-9 form yet? I accepted an offer before Thanksgiving and have already had my new hire session, but still haven't received the I-9.

I got into WV location, do you want to connect?
