HI, I'm a registered nurse here in the Philippines. I submitted my requirements including the application forms to write the nurse exam in BC. I just received a letter that I'm eligible to work temporarily in BC and can write the exam, the problem is.. I don't have an employer in Canada. I believe that that a required number of hours are needed for the nurse registration. What will I do? how can I go there in Canada to write the exam? I also want to ask any details about the re-entry program, do I need a student visa? who will I contact? I hope you can help me Thank you...

There are already a few threads on this. You can look for a employer and get a temp work permit whilst waiting to site CRNE and once you pass you will make your hours up with the employer and they complete paperwork to state you have met said hours and then the province will issue license. I strongly suggest a good read and even use the search facility
