How Connecticut Registered Nurse license verification works

A Registered Nurse in Connecticut is licensed by the CT Board of Nursing. PrimaryCheck looks the license up live at the board's public verification system (board lookup) by license number, or by name when no number is supplied. The record the board publishes is captured as evidence, hashed, and rendered into a proof PDF.

Fields returned for this board: license_number license_type status status_reason issued effective expires city state zip record_refreshed_on.

Board note: State Licenses and Credentials dataset (data.ct.gov ngch-56tr, daily export of eLicense): RN type 10, LPN 11, APRN 12 (+ nurse midwife 16). Interactive eLicense lookup is CAPTCHA-gated (Cavu image captcha + F5 TSPD), not used. No DOB, no discipline detail (statusreason only).

What a Registered Nurse license check returns

Field check	Passes when
`license_number`	Equal to the board's number, ignoring prefix and leading zeros
`name`	Last name or declared alias matches; first name exact or nickname
`license_type`	The record is a Registered Nurse license, strictly (no near-miss types)
`status`	The board shows an active status; probation is active with a flag
`expires`	Expiration is on or after today, where the board publishes it
`disciplinary_actions`	Recorded and flagged with any order documents; never silently dropped

Verdicts: verified, discrepancy, not_found, unable_to_verify (with a reason), pending. See how verdicts are decided.

Nurse Licensure Compact and multistate Registered Nurse licenses

Registered Nurse licenses can carry a multistate privilege under the Nurse Licensure Compact. When the Connecticut record shows a multistate license, the result includes multistate: true and the privilege states. Privilege status is confirmed at the compact's own lookup, never inferred.
