I'm an American living and working in the Philippines

  1. Celestial2311; the best thing you can do is immigrate to the USA and then apply for a license once you have obtained via immigration. The information the person told you from the Social Security Administration is incorrect. Individual states have ...
  2. NCLEX Application Center (NEAC) Comments and Reviews

    I cannot recommend that anyone use their services. A few years ago when I first became aware of their services they really were a full-service oriented organization but now the full burden of gathering and completing documents still falls upon the n...
  3. nclex rn application in Nevada

    The full text is: "2. **Validation of English Language Proficiency If you have graduated from a nursing program in a country or territory where the principle language is English, i.e. Australia, United Kingdom, New Zealand, Canada (except Quebec)...
  4. Nursing Graduate from Phil

    I believe the common solution that most find is to take the LPN course without any reference to the course they took in the Philippines and therefore start over from scratch. Really sad to see it since it means the nursing education in the Philippin...
  5. philippines vs. american trained nursing

    I don't think it's fair or accurate to refer to colleges in the Philippines as "doubtable" since some of the nursing schools in the Philippines have world-class credentials and provide high quality education. UP, UST, UE and Atteneo (to name a few) ...
  6. NCLEX Application Center (NEAC) Comments and Reviews

    They used to be a good service but the service changed over a year ago. They don't provide much of anything and they charge more for the fees. US retrogression is so harsh now that you really do have time to prepare yourself. Take a weekend, resear...
  7. CGFNS for NY, PRC sent document with wrong info

    Login to your account in CGFNS and check your birthdate as they have it recorded to make sure that is correct. I have had many cases where the information is changed somehow in their system from where a nurse I'm assisting had keyed it in only minute...
  8. NC-CLEX an International Training Center?

    NC-CLEX is a Philippine business which registered in California AS A BUSINESS. It's not licensed as an educational facility in California and is not recognized by CA BRN as anything more than a "continuing ed provider". http://www2.dca.ca.gov/pls/wl...
  9. very reliable. The NCLEX passing is not with CABON exclusively so even if your licensure documents are destroyed, your NCLEX passing is still active. If your license expires or documents are destroyed then you can have it "re-activated" so to speak ...
  10. Volunteer Nurses: Counted as a Work Experience?

    Fight for your rights! Unionize! Join Ang Nars! FIGHT the system!
  11. NZ's new policy

    Agreed and disagreed. Be careful that you are getting steps and information directly from the source. NZ's policies have undergone major changes since this time last year and a lot of second and third tier sites hosting NZ information and forms have...
  12. Want a BSN in Philippines

    The passing rate of NCLEX by foreign RNs has a lot of factors in place and only one of which is the quality of education. Bear in mind that if the education has not been determined to meet minimum standards for the USA then they would not be permitt...
  13. I've done research showing exactly where the nursing shortage is and exactly why and how there will be a shortage of 1.9 million nurses by 2020. You cannot wait for the shortage to be crippling before making adjustments in the nursing licensure appli...
  14. Actually it doesn't make sense. An overwhelming majority of nurses coming into the USA are relying on Employer nomination; even for the EB-2 Migration category visa they still need an employer nomination. It is illogical to demand that an employer...
  15. My advice is to consider the state you wish to live and work in. If that state will not allow you to apply directly due to SSN requirements then seek out a state which will issue a license number without SSN and permit you to renew it while in the P...
