Help! what is the first step to working in SC?

Published

Hi ,

My Partner lives in West Columbia and i live in New Zealand. We are planning for me to move there, but i need to have sponsorship from and employer, to allow me to stay as Immigration law only allows for three months. How do i go about this? has anyone any ideas where i need to apply to sit my Nclex and Nursing board requirements.? I am an RN with BN Qualifications and work in General Medicine. My partner is ill and has Cancer, he cannot travel right now or i would be bringing him here because that would be easier. The US immigration laws suck big time..All i want to do is look after my partner and help out your nursing shortage.

Here's Hoping

Trish

Follow the guidelines that are posted for NY to get things done the quickest, then just endorse to South Carolina. But be aware that the process takes months, it is not something that will happen overnight. You need to have your credentials accepted by a BON to be able to sit for the NCLEX exam, then get a Visa Screen Certificate. You can submit the three applications at the same time. Once you get the NCLEX exam completed, then you will be able to get a hospital or agency to petition for you.

Please follow the information posted on the international forum. It will be much more beneficial for you there.

Good luck..........and please let us know if you need anymore help. :balloons:
