hey there, im currently looking into the processes of the visa screen/nclex right now.

to my understanding, you need to get licensure with a state to be granted permission to write the nclex. from there you can get licensure and go to diffnerent states. minnesota was suggested as the easiest state to start the process with and you do not need to be there to be licensed (can be done all long distance)

if you're planning on working in the states, try to get in contact with a major recruiting company, they have a LOT of help with visa screens and they do most of the work for you!
