When is my ATT coming?! :(

Published

I registered to take my NCLEX-PN in Ohio and paid on July 10th. Everything else was taken care of way before that. How long does it take to get the ATT? I feel like I've been waiting forever and this got me to thinking so i double checked to be sure I didn't forget anything but I'm positive I have everything turned in and there's no reason BON would deny me, what's the deal?!

They may be backed up at their office and you may need to call. Have others in your class gotten their ATT yet? Did your school for sure send in your eligibility to take the test?

Call them and ask them to email it to you

Pearson VUE can only send your ATT when they get approval from the BON. In my experience, Pearson VUE is very quick about sending out ATT's, but the BON's are slow. You're trying to get your application processed during the busiest time of the year for them. Depending on your state, it can take 4-8 weeks for an application to be processed by the BON.

Call the BON and make sure they have all your documents and ask how long it is taking to get applications approved.

Yeah I know a lot of other students I graduated with in April who already have their licenses and are currently working as LPNs. Anyone know the e-mail or phone number to reach them please?

Google your state's BON to find their website and look there for the number. They are usually good with telling you what is holding up your letter.

Thank you for all the help!

Also, I had someone in my class not get their letter right away because their email given to them was wrong or was capitalized when it wasn't suppose to be. You will have to call and ask about that though. Good luck.

This happened to me. I was missing a number from my email, so I never got any of their communications. Once I called and spoke with them, I figured it out. I got my letter the same day I gave them the information they were missing.

Thank you I double checked and on my account on pearson vue my email is correct I even received a confirmation email of my payment after I paid. Is the ATT letter sent through email or mail? Maybe my email was wrong on my application? I found the number to call I'm hoping to get through to someone tomorrow! I just wasn't sure if this is normal it's been almost 4 weeks since all my paperwork has been turned in.

I remember waiting and that some of my classmates got their ATT and some didnt - so my instructor called up the person, had us speak to the people there and the next day I got a email with my ATT attached =)

I believe ATT is sent by email unless you don't have an email to provide then they send it through mail.
