Okay I know many people have been wondering on how to go about the “Letter of Explanation” since most of the people here either are new graduates or just recent board passers so obviously they do not have a license at hand thus needing to write a letter explaining why they do not have one.

So here is a possible format on how to write this letter:

(Date)

BOARD OF REGISTERED NURSING

1625 N. Market Boulevard,

Sacramento, California 95834-1924, USA

To Whom It May Concern:

As indicated in your requirements for application we need to provide you with a photocopy of our license or diploma to practice professional nursing in the country where we were educated. I would like to inform you that… (state your reason why you do not have a license)

(If you have any other proof of documents such as a Certificate of Passing from PRC also indicate it in the letter that you attached such documents.)

Sincerely Yours,

(Complete Name and Signature)

That is a sample format of the letter I hope this clears things up since many of you are requesting on how to go about it. Please take note that the text in parenthesis in bold and italics are notes so it could give you an idea on how to continue the sample letter.

Some might think that the letter is too short but the thing is though you just have to be direct and give your reason so there is no reason for it to be a lengthy letter.

You can have it computerized or handwritten as long as it is legible. Do not forget to include your signature.

I hope this helped and good luck with your application
