I was chatting with a friend who is an RN in Canada (I'm NOT playing the RN card as opposed to just saying nurse---I don't think Canada has LPN's--I could be wrong--and don't want to offend anyone!) and she was saying that the yearly cost of her license is going up by $100 to $566---per year!
It made me curious as to what the "going rate" is around the US for license renewal?
In WI it's $88 (I think!) for a 2 year licensure--how about where you practice?
I have just paid $157 registration fee for 1 year plus $160 application fee in Australia. We have national registration. It is my first year so I have to pay the application fee as well.
Specializes in NICU, PICU, PCVICU and peds oncology.
Here in Alberta ours will be going up to somewhere around $560 + GST from $546 including GST for one year as of October 1. Gotta pay for the oak doors, granite countertops, marble floors and lunches at the best restaurants...

I'm a Registered Practical Nurse in Ontario, Canada. The cost for my license renewal was $170 ish this year. My malpractice insurance is another $250 I believe!
