To breech

I have read the requirement in CRNBC and it says, "you can submit to them documents for pre assessment".During assessment my school should directly submit it but what about the pre assessment? Is it me or my school? How about the English test? Should I complete it first before submitting for assessment? what if I took it already, can I give it to them together with the application or I have to take the exam again so it would be directly mailed to CRNBC.

your school must directly send your transcripts to CRNBC. You must also request IDP or British Council to forward your IELTS result to CRNBC.

Just take time to read the forms and instructions.

To everybody who is applying for BC, I would recommend that you get hospital experience first before applying for registration with BC. Breech must be very lucky to have at least a provincial nominee program. I have worked for 6 months as a staff nurse and at most 2 years as a Triage Nurse. I am also licensed as a nurse in the US, CGFNS and ICHP certified. Yet up to now, I am not receiving a good feedback from any of the health authorities. I am still waiting for 4 more to reply and I will update this site if ever. This is not to discourage applicants but I would just want to inform you about the possibilities after your application. I have been assessed by CRNBC.

kit is very much correct! finding a Canadian employer was a very tough experience in my case. Up to now, I still couldn't believe they accepted me with this a handful of experience (maybe of my constant follow-up and even calling them thru phone). It's just a matter of showing your interest by being honest to them of your purpose working abroad.

Good luck everyone! Just visit this forum if you have questions and we are ready to answer queries to the best we can..

I just got a letter from CRNBC stating they have my documents and along with the letter were necessary forms that have to be accomplished. All of a sudden, I'm worried because of kit25's last post.

Yesterday, October 8, I received an envelope from CRNBC containing a letter stating what I have to accomplish to in order to take the CRNE along with other forms, including Form 18 (Application to Write the Canadian Registered Nurse Examination). My name is spelled incorrectly on Form 18. The discrepancy seems like it was caused by whoever typed it. Because my application status online contains the proper spelling and it is typed correctly on the envelope that I received yesterday. To avoid any delays due to the typographical error committed, I've decided to e-mail info@crnbc.ca; register@crnbc.ca and ask about what action would be best regarding this matter. Any advice?
