I am a Canadian citizen, married to an American citizen (E6 in the navy). We've been living seperately for awhile but I would like to move down to the states with him. I have a BSN and work in Emergency.
The only problem is, where he's relocating to the jobs are few and far between (Oak Harbor, WA). I *might* be able to land a job doing some sort of home health/public health, which for me is snoozeville but I'd do it. I've been looking for awhile now and there are no FT positions of any sort available for that area. However, there is a hospital on the base at Whidbey NAS. So, providing I obtain my WA license:
-Is it possible for me to work at a hospital on base as a civilian?
-I have also been considering the possibility of joining the navy for 3 years as my husband will be there for at least that long- is this possible?
-Is the TN visa applicable for military hospitals?
FYI I am happy to give up my Canadian citizenship in exchange for an American one, as my plan is to move permanently with my husband.
Anyone with any advice/insight -thanks in advance.
