Guide to Endorsement License Procedures for Registered Nurses in Mississippi

Before applying for endorsement, it is crucial to ensure that you meet Mississippi's eligibility requirements. The Mississippi Board of Nursing (MBON) website provides detailed information on eligibility criteria for RN endorsement licenses. Visit the MBON website at [MBON Website](https://www.msbn.ms.gov/) and navigate to the 'Licensure' section for further guidance.

To simplify the endorsement license procedure, gather the necessary documents in advance. The following items are typically required:

1. Proof of identification (e.g., passport, driver's license)
2. Social security card
3. Original or verified copy of your current RN license from your home state
4. Official transcripts from your nursing education program
5. Verification of previous employment in nursing
6. Fingerprint-based criminal background check

Remember, these requirements may vary, so it's essential to refer to the MBON website for the most accurate and up-to-date information.

Once you have gathered all the necessary documents, it's time to complete the endorsement license application. The application process can typically be done online through the MBON's online portal. Visit the [MBON Online Services](https://msbn.ms.gov/online-services) page to create an account and access the application form. Be sure to fill in all the required fields accurately and double-check the provided information for any mistakes.

To process your endorsement license application, certain fees must be paid. Information regarding the current fee structure can be found on the [MBON Fee Schedule](https://msbn.ms.gov/fees) page. Ensure you review the fee schedule diligently to avoid any surprises during the application process. Payment can usually be made online through the MBON's secure payment portal.

Once your application and payment are submitted, the MBON will begin the verification and review process. Be patient during this stage, as it may take some time for the MBON to contact your previous licensing board and nursing education program for verification purposes. Maintain open communication with the MBON and promptly respond to any requests for additional information.

After successful verification and review, you will soon receive your endorsement license from the MBON. It is crucial to check your provided contact details regularly to ensure efficient delivery. Once you receive your license, you can embark on your nursing journey in Mississippi!
