Help needed

i just got my BSN degree last March from a university here in the Philippines and am now in the process of reviewing for the local licensure exam...

i heard from several nurses (registered) that one is not required to be a local RN (in the PI) in order to qualify for the NCLEX exam, is it true?

by the way, i'm a permanent resident of Canada and am a bit disappointed by the fact that in order to qualify for the CRNE, one has to be an RN in his country of origin first...is there a way for me to take the NCLEX exam, work in the US and not risk losing my immigrant status?

and if ever i'll be able to practice in the US (after passing the NCLEX), would that make me qualified to take the CRNE?

To start with, you are looking at five years before a chance at a visa to work in the US. Just like the US, if you have landed immigrant status and do not reside in Canada for a specific period of time, then you are not going to keep your status there.

We do not have visas available at this time, we have a retrogression in place now.

Canada requires a local license, since you are able to sit for the NLE, would focus on getting that done instead of trying to take a shortcut that will only keep you from doing anything anywhere.

Where would you be getting experience while waiting for the US?
