When will Texas BON send info to Pearson so I can get my ATT?!?

Published

So I am currently a LVN and graduated RN school a month ago. The BON has everything marked as complete when I check my application status. My AOG is complete as of 07/14/2016, my jurisprudence, background, fingerprints/criminal background check ALL complete. I called Pearson Vue and gave them my NCLEX ID number u receive when registering with them. They said they were waiting on BON to send info to them so they can email me my ATT. My question is, how long does this seriously take?!? It's ridiculous this is so slow! It seems like it would be the push of a button. Ugh! Anyone had the same issue? And how long after everything marked complete on BON did u finally get ATT??

Your school might have taken a while to get your graduation information to the BON, although it looks like you're saying they've got it now. I have no idea what an AOG is.

I don't remember Texas being especially slow when I graduated, but that was six years ago. It may take them time to work through the "burst" of new grads who come through at the same time. Have your classmates gotten their ATTs? If you're the only one waiting, call them. If you're all waiting, try to be patient.

Good luck on NCLEX!

AOG - affidavit of graduation. Last time had an ATT 2weeks after last day of school. Thinking it's the timing of new grads and prob peak time for them. Everything is complete. Literally waiting on BON to tell Pearson Vue the final ok to give me ATT. I don't see what BON is waiting on or how long they take to Pearson Vue this info.

We have no way of guessing the answer to your question.

Why have you called Pearson vue and not the BON? They are the only people who may have an answer for you. No one here will know most likely.

The answer to your question mrsboots87 is that on the BON website it says to call Pearson Vue if all is complete with the BON and a certain amount of days have passed. However, I called the BON as well... I started the topic giving the explanation of the situation and asked if anyone has had similar issues. Same to roser13, I am not asking for a specific answer or for anyone to "guess". It was to see if anyone else had the issues I have experienced and how long after they received the ATT or if there was anything that needed to be fixed etc. I searched allnurses and other people had situations where something was off and people on here were able to comment and share what happened to them. So I decided to start one specific to my situation that was not from 5 years ago as things might have changed since then. I know they have since I took the NCLEX as a LVN. So yep, that's it.
