sponsoring foreign RNs


Where should I look to find health care facilities that will sponsor foreign RNs? I have NCLEX and California acceptance of my qualifications.

Many due to retrogression are delaying petitioning of foreign nurses as many hospitals have no idea on how long it will take to get the nurse over, currently looking at 2-6 years depending on where you was born and also if already in the US not able to AOS. All you can do is phone hospitals in the areas you want to live. Also depends on which state you want to work in also

Thank you. I am looking for work in the Northern or Northeastern California area, or Northern Nevada. Or maybe Seattle. Wherever there is work available. I will try contacting individual facilities.
