I know the Florida BON recently changed their requirements for hours and it was increased, I am not sure about NY. What you need to be aware of is that each state is different so make sure you have plenty of hours which would cover both of the states that you are interested in.
Your best bet would be to contact each of the Nursing Boards and ask what their requirements are, however, you might be better leaving it until a bit nearer the time as a lot of things can change between now and 2012. You will probably be short of hours in Obs as well as MH and Paeds as we dont get the amount of training in these 3 areas like they do in the US so be prepared to have to top up.
In the meantime good luck and hope this answers your queries.
