If you’ve ever held a license or certificate (even if it’s lapsed, expired, or inactive), select “yes” to the question regarding your license status with the Nevada State Board of Nursing. Ensure your name matches the system. If your name has changed since your last renewal, use your previous name when creating your account. Once the account is active, you can update your name through the portal. - Complete the Application

If you do not receive your license within 60 days of fingerprinting, verify that the Nursing Board has received your results. If, after 90 days, the results are still pending, you may need to be fingerprinted again for an additional fee. At iPride, we ensure every record we send is properly transmitted to the state system, but we recommend regularly checking the portal for updates to avoid any delays.

Nursing Fingerprint Submission Requirements
The Nevada State Board of Nursing (NSBN) strongly recommends that nursing applicants submit their fingerprints electronically using Live Scan transmission rather than traditional ink fingerprint cards. Live Scan results are faster, less prone to errors, and securely transmitted. To avoid unnecessary delays or lapses in your temporary license, the NSBN advises applicants and those renewing their licensure to have fingerprints taken early in the process.
Fingerprinting is mandatory for both initial nursing licensure/certification and renewals in Nevada. Nurses are required to undergo fingerprinting every five years (or as directed by the NSBN) as part of the licensure process.
Submitting Your Nursing Fingerprints: A Simple Two-Step Process
- Get Fingerprinted:
Visit iPride Notary, Fingerprinting & Apostilles to have your fingerprints taken. If you choose Live Scan electronic fingerprints, they will be automatically submitted to the Nevada Department of Public Safety, and the results will be directed to the NSBN.

- For Live Scan: Attach a copy of the receipt we provide to the Fingerprint Submission Form included in your application and submit it to the Board.
