Waiting for LVN license in Ca

Published

I received my nclex pn results 2/7/13 stating I passed, sent the check for $150 2/8/13 and it still hasn't been cashed by the bvnpt!! Should I worry? What if it wasn't received? Have a job waiting for me but I can't be hired until my license number posts! So frustrating. ..

Unfortunately, the California BVNPT operates by way of snail mail. Nothing at the BVNPT is automated, so their old-fashioned way of doing business is time-consuming and inefficient. I would wait another couple of weeks before worrying about it. Good luck to you.

I was actually thinking of putting a stop payment on my check and send it again via certified mail. A few of my classmates received theirs in a span of two weeks. I do understand the wait, it's just that what if my payment wasn't received and I'm waiting for nothing. :(

You and I are on the same boat! I too live in cali and I sent my payment in on 2/27 I know its only been a week or so...but I'm kinda worried about them not receiving my check! I also did not certify it either. :/

If my check was cashed atleast I would know it was received. .if by Friday no response then I'm thinking if driving up there.

Hey guys not to thread jack but I sent all my paperwork to the bvnpt on December 20th and haven't heard anything.. Should I be worried or is it normal to take over 2 months?

Orrrr if anything keep checking the bvnpt website for your name! It should appear before they send out your license..
