I would call them, Don't sit back and wait and assume anything. California Board of Nursing has a bad reputation in general and a majority of them were fired by the Governor a few years ago. I suggest to call and or email and stay on top of them.

What would they want your passport page for?

To correlate whether a candidate was in the Philippines during school. Some fraudulent applicants were not present in the Philippines for classes and clinicals per their passports

Hello, you guys mentioned the passports and i understand that we have to turn those in to prove our stay in the country of our chosen international college, but can you guys enlighten us with what was included on the list of documents from your evaluators. It would be a big help, thanks.

Also am waiting for a response from my evaluator but knowing all the documents would save some time and money for my college to send all of the documents in one shot. Good luck on your applications guys.

How would a passport show if someone was in school?

What if person never got a passport until they decided to leave the country, which is fairly common in Philippines

Duh,

The OP is from Philippines from reading the OP post. There is not passport to be born into a country.

My question is still why would the Cali BON want the passport from a Filipino Citizens.
