Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.

You need to meet requirements as set out on their website for foreign trained nurse. Expect process to take 4 ish months before you get eligibility to sit the exam. If you have SSN then you will receive a license if you haven't then you have 3 years to provide them with one or file is destroyed.

Remember you are applying for license not NCLEX that is just a part of the process. Moved to the International forum
