Nclex expiration

Moved to the International forum

It is your license that expires not NCLEX. There are a few threads discussing this here in this forum but also have you checked out the BON website?

Hi! So sorry to hear about your dilemma. A friend of mine, a Filipina, came here (USA) as a tourist, took her NCLEX-RN here, passed it, but was never provided an RN license because she didn't have a Social Security Number, never found a company to serve as her sponsor, and was never able to secure a working visa throughout her stay here. Her NCLEX-RN status has expired now and was advised to take the test all over again.

Here's a link on how you can get your SSN.

Of course these are just hearsays. I suggest that you click on the link and find out how you can reach the SSN office for correct info on how you can fix your case. Good luck!

You can't get a SSN without a valid work/immigrant visa you can however talk to the BON and see what arrangements they can make in regards to renewing whilst not in the US due to retrogression

Check out the Vermont BRN website and see what you need to do in order to keep your license active. There are usually continuing education units that you can take but for most states they must be board approved. Thumb through the list and see if you can find something that interests you. If you can't find anything then contact the Vermont BRN for some guidance. Good Luck
