NY NCLEX - Quick Question

[Goodgirl2]

I read in a previous reply by Suzanne that for New York CVS, One doesn't have to be licensed in one's country but must have completed nursing and have full transcripts.

I have full transcripts and I have registered also in my country.

For CVS can I just mention my nursing college and say I am not licensed? I think this way I can save considerable amount of time, because the BON in my country is horribly slow to respond.

Will this cause any problems in future, say for eg: my green card, or credentialing etc

Please advice

That would be considered giving false information and would be grounds for not issuing you a license as well as cancelling your plans to work in the US.

For ever and ever.

Do not with hold any information from any of those applications, I always say to err on the side of including too much, otherwise it can come back to bite you on the butt later.
