Licensing in Michigan
What the compact means here
Michigan is not in the Nurse Licensure Compact as of October 15, 2026. A nurse licensed in another state applies to the Michigan board of nursing for a license by endorsement before working here, even if that license is multistate.
How to get licensed here
- Ask the Michigan board of nursing which application applies to you (endorsement, and whether your current license is eligible).
- Request license verification from every state where you hold or held a nursing license. Many boards use Nursys for this.
- Complete the background check and fingerprinting if the board requires it, and send transcripts or exam proof if asked.
- Ask the board whether a temporary permit exists while your application is processed, and whether it covers the role you are taking.
- Plan on several weeks. Processing time varies by board and by how fast your verifications arrive, so start before you accept a start date in Michigan.
Other healthcare professions
Allied health, pharmacy, therapy, laboratory and imaging licenses and certifications are issued state by state and are not covered by the nurse compact. Some states accept national certification, others require their own license. Ask your recruiter which credential Michigan requires for your role before you commit to dates.
Compact status changes as states implement the law. This reflects our records as of October 15, 2026. Confirm eligibility with the Michigan board of nursing or at nursecompact.org before you accept a role. Nurse Licensure Compact guide · Compact license map · Our agency licenses
Taxes and take-home pay in Michigan
Michigan taxes wage income, and rates and rules change, so use the current rate from your state tax agency. Federal income tax, Social Security and Medicare apply on top. If you work here on a travel assignment, your tax home decides whether housing and meals stipends are tax-free, and that is a question for your tax professional. Put your own rates into the take-home pay calculator and the travel nurse pay calculator.
