Hi Everyone,
This is my 1st post. I would like to ask everyone about the Continental Testing Service. I am reg Nurse from India and would like to apply for Illinois. I have applied it through CGFNS and they have directed me to Continental Testing Service after all the documents were submitted and assessed. I am waiting for the finger prints and Continental testing service report. However, I would like to know if any one had encountered going through applying continental testing service and how long have the process takes? Also, can I apply for NCLEX before getting the report from Continental Testing Service and finger print. Please let me know if anyone has got some idea in regards to this. Thanks.

Do not register with Pearsonvue until you get the OK from the BON.
Thank you for your response. Yes.,.,.i have not yet registered with Pearson vue. Had spent a lot of money for the process via cgfns and continental testing which is taking a longer time....

Hey Sunimol, this is Kushboo here. How's is it going? I'm a reg Nurse, studied in Spain and currently working in the UK. Applied for the CGFNS and they have mailed me the report. Applied for the state of Illinois, but I'm currently lost on what's my next step really. I need to apply to continental testing, but I don't know how. And I know IDPRF is for the Illinois Board of Nursing, but they say I need to contact Continental testing first.
Can you help me please? I really look forward to hearing from you. I haven't done any other paperwork except from the CGFNS. Please guide me. Thank you!
