   Why doesn't she have a SSN? If she's your fiance you can sponsor her and she can apply for a fiance visa then she can have a SSN otherwise she needs to be sponsored by an entity in HI for her to get a working visa.

   I think it's best to call the Arizona BON themselves as requirements vary from state to state. They may require you to pass them some documents while you are waiting for your cgfns-ces results. Best of luck!

   I work for Medicare QIO as a quality nurse and I liked the job that it doesn't feel like a job to me as I work in front of the computer which I usually do even if I'm not working and I'm making more money than if I was working in a hospital (But I st...

   sakygen replied to Keseratops's topic in Nevada

   Congratulations! When do they usually hire New Grads at UMC? I tried applying to everything and I got frustrated and risked myself getting in an agency (they considered my prior RN experience in another country) and it worked well but I wouldn't reco...

9. RN endorsing license to California-BSN Philippines graduate

   sakygen replied to JVFernandez89's topic in Registration

   Yeah I am not making stuff up. They told me that if I want to endorse my license I would still need to take MS and OB at a certified school. I already got evaluated by the BON of CA and they denied me when I applied in 2012.

    sakygen replied to atom2013's topic in Registration

    We were not granted an ATT when we applied in 2012 because of the concurreny issue that's why we moved and worked as RNs in Nevada instead. The CRC has been there for decades and it's only these past years that they enforced it so they can block fore...

    sakygen replied to smangaoang's topic in Registration

    Notefull on youtube has a lot of insights. Each of the speaking tests they have are similar to what the guys from Notefull has. I advise to structure your answers as if you are reading a script when answering during the speaking test. That's what I d...

14. Nevada NCLEX-RN Application - Fresh International Graduate

    sakygen replied to atom2013's topic in Registration

    I think on the requirements it is specified that they won't accept IELTS anymore. 26 is minimum requirement for TOEFL speaking test. You could try the Pearson Test of English Academy instead.

    sakygen replied to atom2013's topic in Registration

    That's really funny. I had a lot of acquaintances who were 2006-2011 graduates from the Philippines who were able to take the NCLEX for CA. My batchmates who did not have any cases after graduation and who applied in 2011 were able to take the NCLEX ...
