Approx timelines from UK to the US

World UK

Published

Trying hard to work out a timeline so I can work out a realistic time for selling our house (don't want to sell too early as have 3 dogs and trouble finding renting willing to take dogs) plus giving notice at work as I have to give 3 months.

I know will only be approx but if RN's from the UK who have already arrived in the US put down their timescale plus the ones already in the process still in the UK would be a big help and may also help those beginning their process

Just to clear up SCAREMONGERYGATE

My Myers Briggs is ISTJ. I am a man of fact. Nothing else will do. I feel that there have been a few ifs and buts about this and nothing too concrete.

All I want is someone to tell me what the flip is going on and whether I need to buy lot of winter clothes for my kids if I'm going to be spending another 6 months here.

That's all.

Arsy1075 - I do read the forum, patience is something I'm running short of, and I'm fed up with waiting. And through all of this, I'm trying to be professional and keep control although.......AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH There I go again. That was probably the loudest for a long time. Even the neighbours are starting to twitch their curtains wondering what's happening.

It's a dark room for me.

When i signed with OGP I had to pay as soon as I passed Nclex but the money wasnt sent for months. I believe it was around 5 months later. Glad you dont have to pay up straight away now as it gives you a bit more time to save up lol. When you are paying for 4 it works out ++++$'s
