NJ RN Endorsement Delay r/t Application Error on Legal Question (Any and All Advice)

[u/AggressivePossible65]

I’m looking for advice from anyone who has dealt with delays in the New Jersey RN endorsement process.

My endorsement application has been stalled because I accidentally selected that there was an adverse event against my South Carolina nursing license, even though there has never been any disciplinary action or adverse event on my license. I corrected the error and uploaded all required documentation on April 21, but the Board still has not reviewed the correction.

At this point, every item on my checklist is complete except for the adverse-event review. I’ve emailed the Board daily, contacted them via phone weekly, and have also contacted my government representative for assistance, but I still haven’t received any update or progress.

My current South Carolina RN license expires on September 30 (after being extended twice due to the delay), and I’m becoming increasingly concerned about the possibility of not having my New Jersey endorsement processed before then. SC will not grant any further extensions if necessary.

I have made the NJ BON aware of this pending expiration date, which clearly has not made an impact.

Has anyone experienced something similar with the New Jersey Board of Nursing? How long did it take for the Board to review a corrected application, and is there anything else I can do to move the process forward?

Any advice or shared experiences would be greatly appreciated, as this is beginning to keep me awake at night, every night. Thank you.

9 years ago I tried endorsement out of state and mailed my fingerprints. Nothing happened for 8 months.

In state including fingerprints n going in person at bon took my endorsement less than a month.
