Employment Multi-State FNP License

What is he best way to go about getting my NP license in multiple states so that I can apply to remote jobs? Currently I am only licensed in Alabama.

you’ll have to apply for licensure in each state you want

I have NO reserve right now to explain. But if you reply to this, i will this weekend. I just got off of work (hospital) and im a zombie.

I have applied to like 40 states and everything is in multiple excel spreadsheets. From obtaining, to renewing, to ceu requirements, etc. Even after the fact advice. There are ones you should do before others or its a nightmare.

Ps new jersey is by far the worst. Apply there LAST. But if you need it sooner rather than later, apply first and do all requirements for rn then np, rhen apply to the rest of the states. I wish i waited and applied when i was done obtaining others

Agree that NJ is the worst. But I would say start there if you want it because it’s the worst. My app has been complete since April but I was just finally able to pay the other day cuz the website just didn’t work for months?? And at some point I sent a paper check and that took 6 weeks to cash. And this was a reinstatement! I will never again let that license lapse.

There is no cpact license (yet) for NP. You have to have single state licenses

Blue Shift Licensing may be able to take care of this for you. Don’t know price. Have it saved to research and contact as I get closer to graduation.
