Applications and Forms

Processing Times

Due to multiple recent staff vacancies coupled with increased workloads, we are currently unable to return calls and emails within our normal processing times. Our primary focus is on reviewing and issuing licenses. If you have applied for licensure, please check the MY LICENSE online portal for real-time updates on the progress of your application. You can expect an update regarding the status of the initial application within 9-11 weeks. If you are then asked to provide additional documentation, it may take an additional 9-11 weeks to review. Answers to most other questions can be located using the links on the right-hand side of the page. If you are unable to find answers to your questions, please utilize the Customer Contact Form. Thank you for your patience while we attend to these priorities, and we will respond to your inquiry within seven business days.

Nursing License Holders

Take advantage of a quick, convenient and free way to keep up-to-date with your nursing licenses. You can receive licensure status updates, track license verifications for endorsement and manage multiple license expiration reminders. Keeping on top of your license can help you prevent any fraudulent licenses or certificates being issued in your name.

Register and complete your information using the link below. You must enter this survey as a nurse. Do not enter the survey as an institution. Every two years when you renew your license, you can review and update your information as needed here.

Institutions and Employers

The National Council of State Boards of Nursing offers a service that will notify you by email about license status changes (e.g., expirations) and disciplinary actions against RNs and LPNs that you employ. The information comes from NURSYS, a national database which receives its data from participating boards of nursing nationwide, including the Alaska Board of Nursing.
