Fiance from Germany RN to United States

Published

Backstory: My Fiance is in Germany going to a 3 year RN nursing program that qualifies for the RN NCLEX exam. I however live in Florida but am willing to move anywhere in the united states to make her transition here easier since we're 90% set on living in the states.

Now the immigration shouldn't be a problem since we will be married and I'm a citizen. My worry is transferring her career here in the states. She's only half way done but in germany you can go to college or go to a nursing program to be a RN. She's in the 3 year nursing program which is strictly school to become a RN.

Is there anyway to check ahead of time if she can transfer it over. We are kinda lost and have already contacted the florida state board and they basically say when its all done we can get her schooling looked at. I would like to eliminate any problems now because her dream is nursing but she is not looking to having to redo her education if it could have been avoided ahead of time

Also any extra information or things i need to ask her for please let me know I'll provided them asap. Any help would be greatly appreciated
