Do I need to take the CGFNS exam

Hi and welcome to the site

Please take some time to read this forum especially threads on Working in the US and retrogression. You need to check out the board of nursing website to see if you need to take the CGFNS exam, BON website will always be up to date to what they require of foreign nurses. Once you have gone through the licensure process with BON and receive permission to sit NCLEX you then register with pearsonvue who once they hear from BON will issue you with your ATT. Once you have passed and receive license then you need to apply for VSC and if passed English exam arrange with both BON and English exam body for them to send your results to ICHP. Be aware that you are looking at several years before moving to the US and that is not guaranteed anymore.

Good luck
