French Nurse

Hi everybody! I graduated as a Nurse in France in 1994. I have been working in a psychiatric hospital for 22 years. Next year I'll move to California where my husband to be is living.:happy:

I would like to take (and pass) the Nclex to work as a RN over there.

Who could help me with the procedure to get the ATT. Do I have to send my original Nursing school file and a copy already translated to the Nursing board ? What if the papers get lost?

Do I have to take an English exam before, like TOEFL?

Can't wait for your answers. Thank you.

    Check out the BRN website however you cannot apply to California without a US SSN. You may have to consider applying to another state first as you cannot get ATT until requirements are met. Each state has their own requirements so you need to check the state website out for requirements for International Trained Nurse, which for most is CES report with CGFNS

    I would highly suggest that you should come here in California first before applying. SSN (social security number) is a big requirement in California. Of course, you will get it once your residency status here in the U.S. will be legal. Then you can apply for the California BRN (Board of Registered Nursing). You can apply by online through Breeze or by mail. You can visit their website for more information. And no, they don't require English test. But you will provide a Certified English Translation form to your certified translator if your transcript is not in English. God bless!
