How can I obtain a compact license as someone who is licensed and resides in a non-compact state (NY)?

Hello,

You would have to legally reside in a state that is part of the compact agreement. Then you can apply for a license through endorsement.

Unfortunately you would have to get residence in a state that has compact status. Requires a permanent address and not a PO box

Short answer, you cannot. Long answer: if you are looking to apply for another state license you will apply by endorsement or reciprocity for EACH state you wish to be licensed. You will go through their state board of nursing for the nursing application and instructions.

If you’re working as a travel nurse than travel nurse agency can assist you to get a other state license.
