How is compensation structured?
Employees are paid weekly via direct deposit. In order to obtain tax free stipends, you must maintain a home more than 50 miles away from the facility. The government will allow you to earn tax free money as long as your place of employment is far enough away that you have to stay overnight prior to returning home. You can still be a travel nurse if you do not maintain a home more than 50 miles away, however you will not be eligible for the tax free stipends.
How long do I need to commit to ATC?
Most travel assignments are 13 weeks. After that it is up to you if you would like to stay at the facility longer.
May I travel with a friend or pet?
