Hello Ms. Joan,Good day.. I want to ask about my existing application in BON-CA.Since I started to process my endorsement in Vermont,  do they cancel my application there because I endorse my requirements to Vermont? or they will wait till my result expire. My NCLEX result will only expire this November 2009. One thing is, I want to have a license active in CA so,I don’t know if I could keep 2 licenses in 2 states? I hope u get my point. Thanks a lot

I don’t think you can hold 2 licenses in 2 states especially with the situation of not having a SSN since you cannot get your permanent license in California.

Hello again Miss Joan!Ok lng po ba na send ko ang photocopy ng ID license at board rating ko even without the photocopy of my board certificate.After 6 months pa daw kase puede ma release ung board certificte nung pumasa ng June 2008.

That is fine. Just send over a copy of your PRC License and a certified photocopy/ original board certificate. Just attach a cover letter explaining that your actual board certificate won’t be available until 6 months from now.

MS. TORRES

what should i do, so the CA BRN will send my result ot cgfns/ichp?

You are applying for VisaScreen? If yes, there is a form in the VisaScreen application packet called License Verification and fill out the necessary parts and then send it over to CA BON together with the fees and when they receive that they would be the one to mail the filled out forms to CGNFS/ICHP.

hi Miss Joan,tnx po reply..anyway may question lng po ako..nareceived ko na po ung fingerprint ko from cali.wats the next thing to do po? ung mga ni request ko pong requirements sa skul nsa akin n din po.I asked them kng cla po ba mgpapadala.hndi daw po.so pano po un?ano po color ng background ng 2×2 passport size?Pwede din po bng pki explain regarding Interim permit? confused lng po.kng required po akong kumuha non.ano po ba ung ADvantages and disadvantages pg kumuha k ng interim permit?may expiration po ba ang NClex once u passed it??tnx po..pcensya na po sa maraming questions?hoping 4 ur reply..more power po and Godbless.. =)

First, with the fingerprint card you have to have that accomplished by a professional in terms of getting the fingerprint marks usually you can do that at a NBI branch more often than not they have that done in Carriedo. Also please follow the abbreviations for certain question in the fingerprint card which can be found in the application packet from CA BON.

As for the school requirements, most school in the Philippines do not offer mailing. So what you can do is have all the school documents needed placed in a letter envelope and then have the it sealed and signed by the registrar. And then you have to mail it separately from your personal application and have it appear that the school sent it. So you would use the school’s address in mailing.

Usually, its a white background 2×2 picture. As for the interim permit, you need not apply for it because first of all, you are not legal to work in the US usually this is beneficial for students who graduated nursing there and is in transition for work and like what I mentioned a BSN degree holder who can work there.

For California, once you passed the NCLEX-RN exam, they will be prompting you to give a SSN which of course can only be obtained when you are legal to work in the US. If not, you are given three years to provide them with that.

Maam JOan,

I have received a snail mail from BRN in CA about my application. They had initial evaluation and they found out that I was allegedly the one who pass my school credentials which I didn’t. I confirmed the school that they sent my documents last october 24.

One more thing is that they mispelled my name in the letter header.. It should be Cristopher not Christopher. It’s in my application though. Then I emailed the BRN in their licensing, exam application and status application last december 10 yet i haven’t yet received any response from them. Tell me what to do…

Here is the thing, if that is their finding then all you have to do is comply with it. So what you can do is request the necessary documents again from your school and then have them certify all the documents. The best thing is have all documents placed with a school seal at the same time place all the requirements in a sealed envelope and have them sign the flap of the envelope. It would help if your school can also attach a letter saying that all documents were prepared by the school and then have them attach a copy of the letter CA BON sent you. But of course, the decision will still be up to you if you want to fight your way thru this but I think you will just lose more time doing son.

You have to inform the CA BON about the mispelled name. Since it might create problems in your ATT in the long run. The accuracy of your name is important when you take the NCLEX-RN exam. The best thing to do is to give them a call. More often than not they really do not reply via email. Their office hours is 8am- 5pm Pacific Time, Mondays- Fridays and the contact number is +1 (916) 574-7697.
