Common questions

- What about facilities with no openings today?
- They are listed here with what their pages hold: the facility, cost of living, housing nearby and what travel nurses have said about working there. Postings appear the hour they reach the board.
- Does Louisiana tax travel nurse pay?
- Louisiana taxes wage income, so the taxable base of a package is taxed at the state level as well as federally. Stipends are not wages; what counts as a stipend depends on your tax home.
