hi! after i found out that i passed the nclex rn exam using the quick result service, i immediately send the validation of license form (cgfns visa screen) to IDFPR with $20 fee (bankdraft)...

i just want to ask how long does it usually take before they (IDFPR) forward the form to CGFNS/ICHP.. thanks.. have a nice day.. god bless..

If you have not had a license number assigned yet, they will have to manually look up your file. Expect a couple of weeks at least, they get tons of mail on a daily basis.

awww... it's been a month since i send the validation of license form (visa screen) to IDFPR... still, they havent forwarded the form to CGFNS/ICHP (according to my status on cgfns account).... that is the only document lacking... does anybody know how long do they usually forward the form to ICHP?... :uhoh3: thanks...

sorry, accidentally attached my reply to your post

From what State BON ? It's usually 2-3 weeks before it reaches ICHP (coming from the BON). That is if the BON is not overwhelmed w/ so many requests then another 2-3 weeks or so before ICHP reviews and approves it.

The CGFNS web account isn't always updated either. Some already getting their VisaScreen Certificate even if their account doesn't say so.

Give it another 1-2 weeks. Plus they usually use courier to send it nowadays and they'll e-mail you w/ the tracking # of the courier so you can track it.
