What to do?

Hello, I would like to ask for your advice on how to process if I will be retaking my NCLEX. Here is a brief history of what I've been through, In 2018 I registered in New York BON for RN licensure exam. I took my NCLEX in September 2019 and unfortunately I failed. After knowing my result, I immediately scheduled a retake in April 2020, but was not able to push through until my ATT expired, brought about by COVID19 pandemic. They gave me consideration and extended my ATT however, I was not able to still take the exam due to strict COVID19 protocols in my country. Now, I would like to take NCLEX again, the same state New York. My questions are: 1. Do I need to register again to NYBON? 2. Do I need to have CGFNS evaluate my credentials again? 3. CGFNS notified me thru email that the storage period of my documents will expire in 3 weeks and advised me to pay and extend the storage period, or else they will destroy my documents; is it necessary to extend the storage period? These are a few of the questions I need to know so I can process my NCLEX again since I am doing it myself, ( I learned from my workplace that they are under an agency that helps them process their application) which I can't afford so I am on DIY. Thanks for your help, hoping you could help me, guys.

    1 is a question for NYBON, but if it were my state, you could check the BON a website and see if your status is “exam eligible”.  If not, we would have to register and pay again.

    2/3 - I have no idea with cgfns is, but if it’s something that’s required to have in order to take your test, then I would personally pay to have the storage period extended.  Again though, this is a question more accurately answered by a phone call to NYBON..

    A final note, have you kept your head in the books?  I absolutely can’t imagine trying to take the NCLEX 4 years after graduating..

    Thank you for your response, sir. I was hoping there are some nurses who have the same experience as mine and how they go about it. I have also started reading books and trying out practice exams. But I can't concentrate yet since I've been thinking about how to process my application. I guess you're right, calling the NYBON will definitely clear my mind. Thanks much!
