No. Nevada only recognizes domestic partnerships registered in Nevada and will not recognize a California DP. California will recognize a Nevada DP, and treat it the same as a marriage. So, for the purposes of receiving domestic partner benefits from a California job, a Nevada DP should be sufficient, although individual employers may try to impose unnecessary requirements. For the purposes of ensuring spousal rights in CA in the event of hospitalization or death, a Nevada DP should also be sufficient.
