thank you so much for your help. I'm just wondering where did you get it? Do they send that to you through mail?

[Chacombs]

My analysts send one to me together with the first letter I received my CA BRN. But you can get that also from this group in fb called “California Board of Registered Nursing international graduates “. I’m a member of that and most of your questions regarding filing and deficiencies, someone always have Answer. It’s a big help for me joining that group. I just got my ATT last Tuesday

Hi mainey15

Honestly speaking, I do not know how the international diploma verification happens in California but I never applied there.  I am sure there many nurses in this nursing forum (corner) who know it very well and who are willing to guide you. I know the process in Canada, though. If one day, you get interested in Canada, then, I can be of help in that end. I am sorry but wish you the best of luck.

hi mainey15,

Are you from Mindanao, Luzon, or Visayas?

call your school and request rle, diploma and tor . your school will make 2 copies of that and put "certified true copy" on it. they will issue a letter also address to CHED requesting CAV (certification, authentication and verification) for your documents. once all those are ready, your representative will bring it to CHED (nearest where you graduated). mine was in CHED Manila. Usually its CHED who will forward it to DFA Aseana for Apostille. CHED will give your representative a receipt with date when to pick up from DFA. on Pick up day, your representative will mail it in DHL located inside the DFA Aseana too. DHL there is the expressworld I think. 

 

note: 1.  you have to make 2  authorization letters for the person who will process your papers. One for CHED , one for DFA. have it notarized . mine I bring it to UPS store for $15

         2.  Scan a valid government ID and in the paper where your scanned id is, sign it 3x. because your representative need it when claiming the apostille (authorization letter and copy of Govt ID with 3 specimen signature)

         3. Call DFA few days before the pick up date to inquire if your apostille is ready for pick up  because sometimes its not to avoid going back and forth.

         4. they will not fill up the international verfication form or diploma verification form. ask your representative to just include it in the package. DFA will not fill it up since theres Apostille already.

 

I hope all these info helps

The authorization letter is it the same with special power of attorney? Or just regular written authorization letter?
