I would like to update my application to CA to take the NCLEX. I got a letter from the CA-BON just today its says that .. this is to inform you that CA-BON has evaluated your application and you have been found to take the NCLEX-RN - to those people here that would like to take an NCLEX-RN with out the license from your home country, there still a hope for that. I take 2x NLE at philippines, i failed. I am here in the states already. now I need to study2x to passed this exam. thanks god for the first step.

Focus on this.

Remember that CABON is enforcing the SSN only rule now, so unless you have an SSN they will not accept your application beyond April 26th, 2010

You are correct, if you have SSN you are fine. Continue to file and best of luck with your NCLEX.

So what happens if you are able to take and pass the NCLEX and are licensed by the CABON? Will you be able to endorse your license to Indiana? I would make sure you check the rules of Indiana BON about license endorsement in your particular situation.

If you are a resident alien then you still must be a local board passer from country of origin; if you are a US Citizen then the requirement is waived.

Every state requires a local license from the country of origin for non-citizens to apply for licensure.

Individual evaluators may be able to make exceptions if you can prove that you are in the process of citizenship (meaning that you have documents submitted and are merely awaiting processing) but they would be bending the rules to do so.

If you are currently a permenant resident in the USA and have not filled the length of stay requirement to begin citizenship proceedings then you would not be able to convince an evaluator to bend the rules on that regard.

In fact, I only saw it one time when a nurse who had married a US citizen was in the USA on a spousal visa which has a slightly faster course to citizenship. The reason the evaluator bent the rules for her is because there was clear evidence that she was not going to be leaving the USA.

That was a few years ago... a lot has changed since then.

In today's environment it is my professional opinion that you would be unable to convince an evaluator to bend that particular rule.

Hello sorry for the late reply. we are in vacations. by the way about your questions. yes you can take an NCLEX at CALIFOFNIA with out license in our home country, all you gonna do is, if you passed the NCLEX-RN at CA. then you can endorsed your license at IOWA but you need to check first if they need a license to our home country. or if they allowed a license nclex at CA. in my case if ever i will passed the exam i can't endorsed here at indiana because they need a license to our country, hopefully god's will we will move to texas or florida then i can practice my license as a nurse..

Hello Shiela! May I know your reason in your letter of explanation to BON-CA why you don't have any local license because my wife has similar situation to you. Thanks.
