Moved to the International forum

You have a couple of issues mainly being retrogression and a long long wait ahead of you. Working as a caregiver is not nurse experience and you may find issues if the BON is after current nursing issues. Not sure why you haven't looked at working in Canada as a RN

You need to look at the BON website and meet their requirements for foreign trained nurse and get eligibility to sit NCLEX.

If you sister is in Las Vegas legally as a USC, she can apply for an immigrant visa for you. This will take 8-10 years. That is really the only option open to you right now.
