A foreign nurse licensed in New York needs to transfer her license to California but is blocked by an expensive and unresponsive licensure endorsement process requiring a verified translation of a 150-page syllabus.

The BRN is unreachable by phone or email, and the only verified translation services are prohibitively expensive ($4k) with no alternative workflow.
