How long does the Arizona Board of Nursing process application forms?
When you receive the Arizona packet, it will have both the NCLEX® application and the Arizona RN licensure by examination packet including fingerprint cards. The fees for the Arizona RN license are $281.00 with fingerprints and temporary license. The fees for NCLEX® are $200.00. In addition, the foreign educated nurse must have the nursing school transcripts “certified” by an acceptable agency to be equivalent to a US Nursing education and the licensure of the nurse verified. One agency that is acceptable is the CGFNS Credential Evaluation Service. This fee is $270.00. Arizona will notify NCLEX® when all this paper work is received and reviewed by AZ staff, if the nurse is approved to take the NCLEX®. If so, then NCLEX® mails the ATT. The nurse has 90 days in which to schedule the NCLEX at one of the worldwide test sites. Source: www.nurseimmigrationusa.
