frustrate

i'm currently living in california, passed nclex, but no ssn, so board of nursing won't issue my license unless i get my social number. while i try to get a nursing job, all hospitals want see my license first, they dont understand my situation...i feel so frustrate...:banghead:

i called brn, the lady told me i could provide my itin number instead of ssn, i got my itin, but when i called back to confirm, another lady gave me a different answer...

does anybody has the same prob? how did you solve it?

CA normally does not issue a license with the ITIN#. Some get thru with that every so often, but they want to see proof that you can work in the US.

If you are a Canadian citizen, then you do not have an issue with getting the TN Visa, have you explained that to the facilities? Most just want you to provide proof that you have passed the NCLEX exam for CA and have the letter that states that you have met the requirements for licensure, just need to submit the SSN# to get the hard license. Not sure where you have been applying, but most are very aware of this requirement.

Thank you suzanne!

Yes, I do have the letter from BRN shows I passed NCLEX and meet all their requirements except SSN. I live in L.A county, and I did apply some hospitals, they seem don't understand even if I explained.

Also, I will get my visa screen certificate soon----my NCLEX result is on the way to their office, mailed from BRN. Everything seems OK, but I really feel frustrate to get an offer. Hopeless.

BTW, I'm holding TD visa, Canadian passport, 4 years nursing experience in Canada...

not sure if many ppl have the same prob and how did they solved..

........Again, I appreciate for your reply! Have a good weekend!:smiletea2:
