I applied for NCLEX-RN through Florida Board of Nursing. I am on H4 visa(dependant
visa). I cannot get Social Security Number. But Florida cannot issue license without SSN,
even if i pass the test. I thought,just with the result i can endorse to another state.But
here the thing is different. . How long does it take,to get an employer and get Hi visa?
Please i need suggestion an help. The application for board of nursing valid for 1 year.
so i may get hardly 6-7 months after the test. Is it possible to get h1 visa in this duration?

H1b visas for this year have finished only exceptions are hospitals affiliated with universities or non profit. Otherwise your employer can not apply for H1b until April next year with a starting date of Oct
