RN Licensure for foreign grad in Vermont

hi im jaen, a newly licensed nurse here in the philippines, I'd like to ask on how and where to pay my payment for application?is it together with the requirements or bankdraft?do I have to pay also pearsonvue for my examination fee?me and my friend were really confused,please help us with this.we will wait for your quick response.thanks a lot!

:welcome:

You need to add payment with your application form otherwise they will not do anythng with it and you will be wasting time. DO NOT pay pearsonvue yet, wait until you get the OK from BON to sit NCLEX then register with them. This is because your account with pearsonvue is valid for 12 months and if there are any delays with your application it means you have to repay. The same goes for visa screen certificate DO NOT apply for it until you have passed most requirements ie NCLEX and language exam

Good luck and would suggest having a good read in this forum and also the NCLEX forum which you can find by clicking the student tab

I would suggest either doing a search on here or look at their website. You don't need CGFNS exam except for a handful of states. Always better to get it from source which would be their site

And to clear up a few things for those of you that are new here:

There is no such thing as an application for the NCLEX exam for any state, it just does not exist.

You will be applying for licensure in that state, and the exam is just one of the steps. It is far from being the only one and you must have permission from the state to be able to sit for that exam.

There is no way to apply directly for it.

And for those of you that are new here, highly recommend that you take the time to read the stickies at the top of this forum, in particular the one called the Primer for working in the US. There is much information there that you need to know before you start any procedure.

Can you please elaborate some important and pertinent informations why should you take your NLCEX in Vermont aside from being a Vermont resident? A classmate of mine also may took the upcoming NCLEX in Vermont. Goodluck toyou all! Please share your valuable ideas.

many choose Vermont for the fast processing time but I think that time takes longer now due to the high applications they receive. The exam is a national exam so makes no difference which state you take it in. With retrogression there is no need to rush and much better in general to apply to the BON of the state you want to work in with a few exceptions

There is no application for the NCLEX exam, one does not exist. You must apply for licensure as an RN and gain approval to sit for the exam. There is no way to apply for it in any way.

The application for Licensure by Examination is available on the website for the BON for this state. You need to download it from there and follow the instructions.

But if you are not planning to actually work there, then there really is not any reason to go thru that state. It is not any faster than the others because of the increase in applications that they are now receiving. And add into the fact that there are no visas for working in the US, it will be a few years before you even have a chance to get a visa. It is no longer a guaranteed thing that passing the NCLEX-RN exam and finding an employer will get you a green card to work in the US. Just is not the case anymore.

You may wish to consider some other countries provided that you have passed the NLE. Most require that as well as experience.
