Do you need to have a license in the philippines for CVS for NY State

Published

Good day! I am a fresh graduate from the philippines, a non-immigrant and is currently in CA. Although I have already been petitioned by my mother (who is a green card holder) in 2009.

I came here to apply to take the nlcex for CA and learned that if you do not have a ssn you are not eligable to take the NCLEX.

I decided to take the NY NCLEX instead since it does not require a SSN.

Right now, I am currently in the process of filling out my CVS for NY State and there is a portion that says "information about your professional license"

Unfortunately, I am not a holder of a philippine license since I did not take the NLE.

My question is, do i need to have a philippine license in order for my credentials to be verified? Will it take a longer time for CGFNS to verify my credentials? and will it affect my chances of applying for the NCLEX in the future?

I will appreciate your help Thank you very much!!

"Hey. I'm also a fresh graduate from the philippines and a non-immigrant but currently in NY. I didn't take the NLE back home and CVS waived the license requirement in my application. I applied 3 months ago."
