hi there!just want to ask it it okey If I take may Nclex in CAlifornia although i intend to work in chicago?

Its okay but of course doing such has its pros and cons. It might cost you more in the long run in terms of time and finances if you take the exam and California and then have your licensed transfer to Illinois. So just weigh out your options and decide on where you want to take the exam. 

hi there! can you pls help me where can I download fingerprint card?I intend to work in chicago?pls help me..thanks..

Fingerprint card for which state? For California, you can request copies of fingerprint cards here. If you are requesting for Illinois fingerprint card you need to contact them at this address:

Department of Financial and Professional Regulation

ATN: Division of Professional Regulation

320 West Washington Street, 3rd Floor, Springfield Illinois 62786

Telephone: 1(217) 782-8556

Good morning! I am worried a lot about my fingerprint cards. I sent the two finger print cards. Before that, I put my nickname in the aliases or aka box which the NBI found out that it should be blank since i don’t have other names. I’ve put my nickname there because i thought it’s a nickname since here in the philippines especially applying in nbi requires other names so my mistake. So what the NBI told me is to erase using a white out. I already sent my application last couple of days. But i’m still worried if the card will be rejected which will create delay in my processing.. What shall i do?

All you can do right now is wait. If ever there would be problems with your application the California Board of Nursing will send you a letter via mail for any correspondence with regards to your application. The best thing you could do right now is request another set of fingerprint cards and then have it accomplished at the NBI and just have it ready just in case the CA BON asks you to resend another set of fingerprint card. That way you save time rather than just waiting for their correspondence doing nothing. I hope this helped. If you want you can give them a call to verify the status of your application.

Thank u very much Miss Joan!But I have another question again,Kailangan po ba Authenticated ng PRC ang copy ng license ko bago ko mail sa CA.Lahat po ba kailangan nila sa copy of license ung Board rating,Certificate o ID xerox lang po.

To be safe send them a certified photocopy of your PRC license or the PRC diploma if you have it at hand already. If not, you need to request from PRC your Certificate of Passing as proof.

I have relatives in states California. Im here in the philippines applying for NCLex. SO u mean ang ilalagay ko sa application address ko is my relatives address?

That depends with you. I usually suggest using a US address since mailing of documents in the same country would definitely be faster. But sometimes its not enough to have relatives abroad you have to make sure that your relatives can relay to you the correspondence coming from the CA BON so that you can also repsond to them accordingly.
