Here's a local organization of nurses from the Philippines that will surely be able to steer you in the right direction:

Hi! First go to BON -Hawaii site and download and fill up the application form and pay for the fee. Evaluation is done by CGFNS so you need to visit their site also and download and fiil up their application form and pay the fee (inlcude a copy of your high school diploma when you send ur application). After that, request for an OTR from your school ( together with other forms from CGFNS that needs to be signed by your school registrar- available in CGFNS website) and asked them to send it directly to CGFNS. wait for about 3-4 weeks for result. If you passed the evaluation, BON hawaii will contact you and give you your eligibility. Register to Pearson afterwards and you will receive your ATT. Goodluck.

If your husband is petitioning you then you don't have to do IELTS unless the hospital or Board of Nursing requires it. Some require it if English is not the first language.

If you can find a job in the US and you have the appropriate work/immigrant visa then you can work but they will require to see the visa and confirm you have legal permission to work

Thank you for all the replies..

Hello, what if I'm in Hawaii now, how long it will process all the requirements before the exam? Thanks... And what best advice you can give me if I'll take the nclex? What review center can help me here in Hawaii? Thanks.
