CES Report and eligibility

Published

Hi all. I'm a foreign educated nurse and I'm trying to get my licence recognized by a US BON. My CES Report has been issued a few days ago and made electronically available to the BON I applied to. I believe it is going to take about a month to have a reply from the BON, but my question is: once you got your CES report (positive) can the BON refuse to give you the Elegibility to take the NCLEX? Thanks in advance.

oh my goodness i salute you for being so patient with this.....what country are you from anyways?

im from the philippines and i graduated 2011 in Philippines...rejected by bon of california (As expected but still tried anyway)..now im just waiting for my cgfns.....if all is well with my cgfns i will pass my application in bon Nevada...then take toefl.... what state are you applying in ryt now?

I'm from Italy and graduated in 2016. I worked in a nursing home For afew months then i had to resign to do those extra clinical hrs. I'm going crazy because of all this waiting. I took the ielts and passed with a good score. I don't Know about nevada but you should think of having also the VISA SCREEN since i believe you need that Too if you want to work in the States. Good luck

The thing is that i already have a ces report submitted to bon illinois since at first i wanted to be an rn there but then i changed my mind and decided to take lvn here in california. Do u have an idea of how will i transfer my ces report that was completed and sent to illinois last 2015? I do not want pay again that $325 for assessment and do all the paperworks again from my school since i already did that 2 yrs ago.
