Frequently asked questions
How long is a typical travel nurse contract?
Most travel nurse contracts run 8–13 weeks, with the option to extend or take a new assignment after each contract. Some crisis or rapid-response contracts are as short as 4 weeks.
Is housing provided or is there a stipend?
Most travel agencies offer a tax-free housing stipend rather than agency-arranged housing. Stipends vary by city and assignment, typically $1,000–$2,500 per month on top of weekly taxable pay.
Do I need a compact nursing license?
A multistate (compact) license lets you work in any NLC member state without applying for a separate license. For non-compact states (e.g., California, New York) you'll need a state-specific RN license before starting.
