The federal ceiling on tax-free lodging reimbursement in Hackensack is $110 per night, plus up to $68 a day for meals (GSA, FY2026). GSA names roughly 300 higher-cost destinations individually; Hackensack is not one, so the national standard rate applies. That is a maximum, not what agencies pay.
New Jersey is a Nurse Licensure Compact state, so an active multistate license covers you here. A single-state license from elsewhere does not.
