We ask that you take the time to do some reading here on this site about working in Canada and what you need to do to get licensed there. Please keep the comments on this thread to those that have already signed with this specific agency and are in the processing.

It makes is easier for everyone else to follow.

Best of luck to you.

Do be aware that one cannot work in Canada as an RN until they have taken and passed the licensing exam and that is only offered three times per year and in Canada.
