Step 1: NANB Profile
Create your NANB profile online and follow the steps.
Step 2: Out-of-Province Application
Complete the Out of Province application form on your NANB profile and pay the applicable fees.
Step 3: Legal Name
Submit proof of your legal name (valid Canadian ID) during the completion of your online application.
If you are submitting documents in a different name (e.g., transcripts, verifications from other regulatory bodies, etc.), you must provide documentation to support the name change (e.g., marriage certificate or name change certificate), which can be done while completing your application.
Step 4: Verification of Registration
Arrange for verification of registration documents/letters of good standing from the jurisdiction where you received your first initial RN registration, and a verification from the jurisdiction where you held your most recent RN registration if different from your initial registration. To do this, complete section A of the Verification of Registration Formand forward it to the registration/licensing body (a fee may be required by the other regulatory body to complete this form, so please check with them directly).
- Because it may take a few weeks for your verification of registration requests from other jurisdictions to be processed, this step should be completed immediately after applying to NANB.
- All verifications of registration are valid for six months from the date of issue. NANB may require updated verifications of registration if your application process exceeds six months.
Step 5: Confirmation of Hours of Practice
Complete section A of the Confirmation of Hours of Practice Form and forward a copy to each employer where you have worked during the past five years and arrange for the employer to forward the form directly to nanbregistration@nanb.nb.ca.
Step 6: Criminal Record Check
Submit a current criminal record check through CSI Screening.
- This can be done by visiting www.csiscreening.com, and completing the Canadian Criminal Record Check. Please indicate “NANB” as the company. This must be sent directly from CSI to nanbregistration@nanb.nb.ca.
- For criminal record checks from other sources such as the local police or RCMP, NANB requires the original stamped copy be sent to us by mail at 165 Regent Street, Fredericton NB, E3B 7B4.
- Criminal record checks are valid for six months from the date of issue.
Step 7: Jurisprudence Module
Complete the Jurisprudence E-learning found on your NANB profile and notify us by email once complete. Please email nanbregistration@nanb.nb.ca.
Step 8: Pay Registration Fees
Once your application is approved for registration, pay all applicable registration fees. Please see Fee Schedule.
