passed nclex - CA but does not have SSN

you can submit you SSN when you get here (in US), that is if your fiance has petitoned you to come. securing an SSN is impossible if you're there in PI. if you don't have any SSN, the BON usually keeps the license on file until you can submit a valid SSN. remember, your license is of no use UNLESS there is an SSN number. my friends back in PI have passed NCLEX but pending still coz they dont have the SSN to validate it.

having passed the NCLEX will NOT make coming here faster or easier, take into consideration the retrogression of working visa speifically catered to nurses. it will run years to have a working visa submitted today to be granted. plus, with the economic recession here in US, the healthcare industry is NOT recession proof. there isn't much hospitals hiring nurses here and for a fact there are countless unemployed nurses (both USC nurses and foreign grad nurses).

Now my thinking to endorse my nclex to another state who do not require SSN.

i have not heard a state that doesnt require the SSN..correct me if i've mistaken.

i'm just wondering though, why will you look for such state when the NCLEX license is only valid here in US. the first concern should be coming here first, because even if there are states that will not require SSN, you still can't use the license (if issued) to practice elsewhere..
