Looking to register in Arizona

[ducka71]

Hi all,

I am an Australian citizen with Registered Nursing and Registered Midwife registration in Australia, I am interested in looking to do some work in Arizona and was wondering if anyone could give me any tips on registration requirements for the US. I understand each state has their own registration requirements and am just finding gleaning information from the websites quite confusing.

If anyone can offer any advise it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance guys

AZ will not I believe give a license without a US SSN, which you can not get without legal rights to live and work in the US, but I believe they will accept application and if eligible sit NCLEX. Check out page 4 in this link for requirements for someone trained outside the US https://www.azbn.gov/Documents/applications/App%20Packet%20Downloads/RN%20LPN%20Exam%20Packet.pdf
