moved your thread to the int'l forum. any q's pertaining to applying for sitting for the nclex and the like should be posted in the int'l forum where it is more appropriate. thanks.

correct me if i'm wrong but i believe NY needs both cgfns and nclex for you to work there. cgfns requires that you pass the local boards before you can take the exam.

if i were you, choose a state that only require nclex like cali and vermont ( i belive there are 11 states in all )

good luck!

NY you do not need CGFNS exam but they have arrangements with CGFNS regarding paperwork and if you go this route then after filling the paperwork CGFNS do the running around getting transcripts

CA has delays of several months before you can take the NCLEX and before they will issue you with a license you need a SSN
