In December 2006 I couldn't afford to pay almost $400 to renew my nursing license, so I opted to pay a lesser amount and go from "Registered Practicing" to "Registered Non Practicing." I did the same thing in December 2007.
Now that I'm getting ready to do a back to work program I need to renew my license in full and go back to "practicing" status. Talk about a hassel!! Had I known what was involved I would have somehow found a way to pay the full fee before.
When I send in the payment and the appliction for reinstatement, I also have to include an original copy of a Police Criminal Records Check. I didn't even need one of those when I graduated, wrote the nursing exam, paid my fees and got a job!
Anyway, I've never had a run in with the law other than the odd parking and speeding ticket, but I'm all nervous!!!
