Hi. I am a US-RN and is thinking of trying to migrate to Canada. Can somebody give me advice if its true when they say that if you pass you're an NCLEX passer, you can just apply for a reciprocity in Vancouver? Is this true? Please help me.

i will say that CNO and all other provincial regulatory bodies to follow the suit of BC. Alberta will make a decision this week.

You've probably gotten ur ans by now but if you are still looking for the current info then the ans is "Yes", its true! I am BC grad nurse and going to take nclex USA instead of CRNE. I did talk to the Examination Administrator person of CRNBC before applying for BON and found out that the USA nurses(Nclex Passer) will be eligible to work in Canada without writing any exam. Same rule applies to Canadian nurses who wants to work in USA. You need to do your paper documents formalities such as proof of your current licence or State nursing licence for a reciprocity. As Every State is different and they may have different application requirements but definitely no need to take nclex for sure. It is going to change in Jan 2015 and also heard form one of the BC nursing faculty member who teaches CRNE prep course in ON that ON will be accepting nclex passer in Sept before Oct crne and other provinces of Canada will be starting in next year January 2015. Good Luck!

Announcements | CARNA

CARNA recognizes past NCLEX-RN results[/h]POSTED SEPTEMBER 29, 2014

On September 26, 2014 CARNA Provincial Council passed the motion to retroactively recognize all passing NCLEX-RN results back to 1982. Effective immediately, if you passed the NCLEX between 1982 and present day, you will be considered to have met CARNA’s exam requirement for registration. You will not be required to take the NCLEX again.

Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.

It isn't just IELTS you have to pass. You still have to meet other provincial requirements and for most I still expect to see some form of assessment and further courses
