When will I receive my Nclex Eligibility in California

Published

I'd like to know when will I receive my Nclex eligibility. I'm from California and I just went back to the Philippines to finish Nursing. I graduated last March 2010. I moved back here on June 2010 and applied that month as well, After 2 weeks, I got a mail from BON requesting for additional requirements from my school which includes: Class Schedule, Schedule of Clinical Rotation, Photocopy of enrollment forms, transcript of classes prior to enrolling at the nursing program and a photocopy of my passport. My school sent the documents last week of July via FedEx. I checked the tracking number at FedEx and it said that the recipient (BON) already received the documents last August 3, 2010. As of now, I still did not get any letter from BON. How long do I usually have to wait? :confused::confused::confused:

hi guys.. im also experiencing the same problem.. i received a letter from the BON of Cali just this day after 7-8weeks of waiting.. the letter stated that my school must send them the RECORD OF THE REQUIRED CLINICAL CASES (ACTUAL/ASSISTED DELIVERIES, CORD DRESSINGS, AND MAJOR/MINOR PROCEDURES), REFLECTING THE EXACT DATES CLINICAL PROCEDURES WERE COMPLETED, THE LOCATIONS IN WHICH THEY WERE COMPLETED, INSTRUCTORS SIGNATURES, ETC.. and ACADEMIC CALENDAR WHICH REFLECTS EXACTS DATES EACH SEMESTER, ALL HOLIDAYS AND ALL BREAKS BEGINS AND END.. I did not take the PNLE. i must also send them additional requirements such as a copy of my visa and/or passport for the timeframe of my nursing school including the copy of the empty pages of the passport and my US ssn.. im a dual citizen.. when i asked someone i know who applied, she said that it just took her 2-3weeks to receive her eligibility.. she's just a green card holder and did not take the PNLE.. she applied twice.. bec she did not passed the first test.. on her second application, same thing happened, she receives her eligibility in just a few weeks.. and how did that happened?? i dont get it..
Hi!! Do you know when (month) did she re-apply (2nd time)? Just wonderin when did the change happen.

Hi daffodile, are you planning to take the OB and med surg here? is is a redundancy of us being a BSN degree holder? OMG how much do we need to shell out? thanks

hey daffodilove. we got the same fate. -_- But Im inquiring now for a nursing school. It's pretty hard to find a school that accepts students like our case. just 2 subjects imagine? And to think, OUR RLE DUTY that we finished in the Philippines was like a trash. non sense. no value :( Its frustrating indeed :(

Hi guys, i was reading your comments. I am also an RN from the Philippines, i am here in the US now. I applied for NCLEX-RN around March last year, same with you guys i applied in California, from what i have been reading from your comments a lot of things changed already. When i applied, i have submitted only the documents that i saw was listed online, and then they just asked me to send them a copy of my greencard. I would say i waited 1 1/2 months before they sent me my eligibility. I took NCLEX last Dec and i was lucky i passed. Goodluck guys!!!
