Hello everyone,

I really needed HELP from my good fellow nurses.

I'm an RN in the philippines with 2 years experience in MED SURG WARD and PACU/OR, I took up NCLEX last year and PASSED it.

I had my edorsement in NEW YORK and I'm done just waiting for my license to be release and trying to have it endosrse again to new jersey but i think it will take a while. I'm currently in the US now with an F-1. I came here as a tourist. I'm so much seeking for a SPONSOR right now, I'm currently working as a CNA in a nursing facility in new jersey while waiting and it's really difficult for my part.

Please I need referrals if you know any agency, facility hospital that can grant petition/sponsorship to live and work here in the US permanently. PLEASE email me: [email protected]

Thank you

Jobs are tight here in the US....sponsoring is expensive. With many unemployed new grads hospitals no longer need to sponsor. I wish you the best!

Very hard to do and on F1 visa you can only work x amount of hours so make sure you a) have permission to work on F1 and that you are studying full time and working only the x amount of hours as it will affect any future applications if found to be working over that.

Even if you find a sponsor you can not stay in the US and work unless you maintain F1 requirements and can afford to maintain full time study whilst waiting for immigrant to be processed which currently taking several years
