The temporary work permit and the application to take the examination are not dependent on one another. The temporary permit is revoked once the NCLEX-PN examination is reported. If the examination is passed, the individual works as a fully licensed LPN/LVN. If the examination is failed, the individual must surrender the permit and work as a nursing assistant.
