Georgia NP to New York NP License Requirements

Explore licensing pathways, application requirements, fees, fingerprinting, license verification, and compact considerations.

Last researched

Source-linked, AI-organized research. Confirm your requirements with the licensing board. This guide does not verify your license or determine eligibility.

Likely pathway †

New York is not a Nursing Compact State, so a Georgia multistate RN privilege does not authorize practice in New York. For endorsement, NYSED requires RN licensure by endorsement for the nursing license; APRN/NP authorization is separate, and the supplied official evidence here does not confirm the full NP pathway. Could not confirm whether an existing Georgia NP license alone satisfies any NY NP certification step.

Government fees †

Official evidence supports a $143 fee for Form 1 RN endorsement. Could not confirm the NP certification fee, Nursys fee, or any late fees from official evidence alone. The available official evidence does not provide processing of payment details beyond the Form 1 fee.

Processing time †

Could not confirm an official processing time from the available official evidence. The supplied nonofficial research mentions 6 weeks and 6 to 8 weeks, but that is not supported by the official snippets provided.

Compact considerations †

New York State is not a Nursing Compact State. A multistate RN license from Georgia or any other compact state does not replace New York endorsement requirements. Could not confirm from official evidence that a single-state New York RN license alone is sufficient for NP practice.

View source

Application requirements †

For RN endorsement, the official NYSED evidence shows Form 1, Form 2, and verification of other professional licensure/certification or Nursys verification are required, plus the $143 fee. The supplied evidence also notes additional coursework in Child Abuse Reporting and/or Infection Control may apply. Could not confirm the full NP-specific application requirements from official evidence alone.

License verification †

If Georgia appears on Nursys, NYSED requires verification through Nursys rather than from the state board. If a state does not appear on Nursys, Form 3 is used. The official evidence says verification is needed for all other states where a license is held. Could not confirm from official evidence that this specifically applies to both RN and NP licenses in the same way.

Fingerprinting and background checks †

The supplied official evidence indicates New York State is not a Nursing Compact State and the materials do not show a fingerprinting requirement for RN endorsement in the official snippets provided. The evidence also says applicants must answer self-disclosure questions and may need to report convictions and disciplinary actions; youthful offender offenses sealed by record do not need disclosure according to nonofficial sources. Could not confirm the full background-check rule set from official evidence alone.

Education and transcripts †

Official evidence confirms Form 2, Certification of Professional Education, is required. The supplied evidence also notes additional coursework in Child Abuse Reporting and/or Infection Control may be required. Could not confirm from official evidence alone whether graduate NP transcripts, clinical hours, advanced pharmacology, or national NP certification are mandatory for this applicant’s NY NP authorization.

View source

Documents to prepare †

Official evidence supports Form 1, Form 2, and Form 3 or Nursys verification for other states where a license is held. The evidence also supports additional coursework in Child Abuse Reporting and/or Infection Control. Could not confirm from official evidence alone the need for national NP certification, graduate NP transcripts, or a current Georgia NP license as required documents.

Responsible agency †

The responsible agency is the New York State Education Department, Office of the Professions. The supplied evidence also references the nursing licensure pages for endorsement and a contact phone number in nonofficial material. Could not confirm the phone number from official evidence alone.
