TOOK NCLEX-RN LAST JUNE 16,08 and STILL NO RESULT

by jh_nn3

Im from the Philippines and took the NCLEX-RN last June 16, 2008. Its been more than a month now and still havent got my result yet (Increase anxiety related to delayed NCLEX-RN result as manifested by sleepless night)..

Anyhow, the computer shut off @ question 75! If i remember it correctly, I had more than 10 SATAS, 6 pharma, 3 drug computations, a lot of prioritizations. I find the exam quite difficult!

Should I call CA-BRN, because a friend of mine who took the exam the following day (june 17) already got his result!

Welcome to the site

Moved this to the International forum

Average time for BRN to contact you via snail mail is 4-6 weeks. I would give it a bit longer and contact them to see if they have sent letters out.

thanks for the info silverdragon.

how do i move this thread to international forum? im a newbie using this site.

anyway, ca-brn is killing me might call them tomorrow, it'll be the 6th week.. I just hope they me a good news on my nclex-rn result.

The wait is killing me, theres no job opportunity for nurse here in PH and there's the retrogression thing happening in the US.

by the way, where are you from silverdragon?

You are unable to move this thread, we have moved it for you.

You tested little more than a month ago, you need to give the mail time to get to you. Letters that one passes or does not pass do not go out as soon as you test, but several weeks later.

Your results will reach you by your mail system, the CA BRN will never give you results over the phone. They are unable to do that.

Please give it another week or so.

CA does not issue a license without the nurse having a SSN#, so one will never seen their name on that site until they are in the US with a visa that will permit them to work and they have obtained the SSN#.

The only way for a foreign nurse to get their results is by letter and that only tells them if they passed or not.

And only 27 states participate in the Quick Results with Pearson-Vue.

I called CA-BRN 2x, and both times the telephone operator took my information and 2x transferred me to a voicemail. I left a message and requested for a call or update regarding my nclex-rn result. Im still waiting for the update and plannig to call them again first thing in the morning.

Is it easier to apply for a working visa? whats the fastest way that i could get a SS#?

Thanks

There is no fast way, visas are in retrogression and unless you meet the criteria of H1b (not many nurses do) then the only option is GC and wait

I was able to speak with the operation few minutes back, and I was told that they will have to re-mail my result, would take about 2weeks!! another 2 weeks of agony *sigh*

Would you know the criteria in applying H1B visa? Will they reject my application for H1B even if theres an employer willing to sponsor?

Silverdraggon what would you suggest me to do (with the retrogression in the US and problems in London)??
