I requested my cousin to request a bank draft from Citi bank since she is working there. Apparently you need a dollar account to create one, so she created it.

I also ticked the "diploma" but i have indicated that i graduated and finished Bachelor of Science in Nursing in the next question. I think I would just email them to tell them about it.

I think you may be OK but may have to do some CEU's depending on VT requirements for renewal

It is Ok to renew your VT license even if you have no work experience yet since you graduated from nursing school not more than 5 yrs. They do not require CEUs for international nurses for first time renewals. You should have received by now the renewal form.They sent it out last Feb. But if you haven't, no worries, download the form from their website. And act fast, deadline is in couple of weeks to avoid penalties. And please read previous posts regarding VT renewal. There are a lot of helpful tips already given.

Best of Luck!

kokomogirl, r u sure it ok to renew my initial license even if i don't have any work experience? coz i thought its a requirement that you have to practice your profession at least 50 days within the last 2yrs... if u don't mind may i ask how did u know that it is ok? is it in the renewal form? coz i haven't received my renewal form until now... that's why i sent vermont a letter of request just this morning to place my license on inactive status coz i didn't receive the renewal form plus i thought they won't renew it unless i have practiced my profession... thanks for the reply...

I believe my understanding is correct Jowannah 03. That "50 days or at least 400 hours within the last 2 years" work requirement is intended for those who graduated from nursing school more than 5 years ago.

Section E: PRACTICE REQUIREMENTS

1. I graduated from my entry level RN educational program within the last five years. Yes_____ No _

If “Yes” date of graduation _____ Name of Nursing Program

If “No” complete questions 2 – 5 below.

2. I have successfully completed a Board approved RN re-entry program (26 V.S.A. 1576©; Rules Ch. 4,

Subch. 2, Rules (III)(A), (VI)(A) and (B)). Yes No

Name of RN re-entry program:

Date RN re-entry program completed:

3. I have practiced as a registered nurse as defined in (26 V.S.A. 1576©; Rules Ch. 4, Subch. 2, Rules

(III)(A), (VI)(A) and (B)) , for at least 50 days (400 hours) within the last 2 years or 120 days (960 hours)

within the last five years: Yes No

4. Provide the following information for all RN employment within the last 5 years (paid, volunteer, or private

duty work); attach additional sheets if necessary:

-this is taken from the form itself.

I hope i am of help to you in any way. I am a vermont licensee myself. Requesting for inactive status is also an option.
