Foreign RN from Philippines with MI license Endorse to California BON-approved!

I'm an RN in MI who applied for an Endorsement of RN license to Callifornia. After months of waiting, I was finally approved. I had been an allnurses forum reader looking to find any interesting topics with regards to personal experiences of obtaining RN from Philippines to California; what's their take on any situations they are into in the Nursing world. I decided to write an article to share what I experienced so that it might help out colleagues like me who are looking for answers on how to do certain things as they go through their nursing path.

Thank you so much, @mitchiefox. Did you endorse your license also? How long is the waiting period?

I directly applied to CABRN. It took around 12 weeks or so of waiting. They just needed the transcript of record sent directly from my school and from there, they will decide what else they would need from you. Give it a try! And goodluck! ������

Hi Mitchiefox. I am a mother of a grade 11 student here in CA and my son would like to take up nursing in the Philippines. May I know what university you went to in the Phils. I would appreciate it if we could have pm via facebook (my username is Angel Ray) as I have so many questions re path to becoming RN here in CA. My husband is an O.R nurse in SoCal but we are no longer updated about the concurrency issue and all. Hope to hear from you. Thanks.

That's a very helpful information. I graduated 2009 and most likely will endorse my New York license to CABON by 2019, if indeed this is true then I will have no problem at all. Keeping my fingers crossed until that time comes.

So i just found out today that the fee have increased humongously.. to apply for endorse of license of an international grad applicant, the fee is now 750$!!! Not including livescan/finger scan fee and interim permit!! Thats too much! I just hope that they will give Me a license this time cause 750$ is a big amount of money.

Hi kurina. What school did you attend to in phils? I graduated 2008 in the phils and i have an NY rn license and currently looking to endorse it to Ca rn. Of all the entries i've read i found your post uplifting with a dash of hope that i might get through these process if they do follow that 10 year rule.

Hi Kurina24. I just want to ask, when you were applying for endorsement, did you submit your cases too or just the TOR? I'm about to do licensure by endorsement from NY to CA. I don't know if I just submit the TOR or do I need to include my cases as well. Thank you.

Hello everyone. Just wanted to know if anybody else here have proven the 10-yr graduation date rule mentioned by Kurina24? I am so hoping that this is really the case so I can endorse my Arizona license to California. Currently practicing in Canada and moving to Arizona next month for work.

can someone guide me what the next step for my endorsement application, my analyst required me to submit my OR, DR cases which i don't have it anymore even my school. What wil be the best way to solve this? thanks pls email me at [email protected]

@kaizernart86 we are in the same boat. I am still to reach out for my school to provide me the school calendar year and my OR/DR cases which I don’t think they keep a copy. In this case is there anything we can do??
