Nclex Rn application in new york for non us candidate

Published

I am a nurse here in India and it is my first time to apply for a licensure in New York State. I do not process my cgfns verification for new york (CVS) online yet.I am little confused about child abuse and infection control training program.When will I Register Pearson Vue after complete review of BON or before ? Is there anyone here who can help me or give me information on the step by step process of applying for a license in NY state. I will do the process on my own and from what I read from the site and, but I am confused. Can someone help me on this? Thanks.....

Starting point is getting cvs on the go, this process can take 6-8 months. Once that is on the go you can concentrate on getting child abuse and infection control courses out of the way. Do not register with Pearsonvue until the BON tell you to

thank you, one more doubts sir after completion of CVS, child abuse, infection control course.then I will register BON?

Do cvs first then register with BON and complete courses whilst waiting for cvs to be completed

First things first.

1. You need to register on CGFNS for New York application. Its different from CGFNS-CES. You need to register online on CGFNS then print the forms, fill them up, sign and notarized them and send it back to CGFNS. This took me 6 months.

2. While waiting, you can start register online also in New York BON. Which you will fill up forms online.

3. Once the three forms you sent back to CGFNS are correct, CGFNS will send the forms you signed so your school and licensing authority sent the credentials back to them. And after all of the credentials are fine to CGFNS, they will send a report to NY BON.

4. NY BON will send you an Email for your eligibility.

5. Register to pearson vue for NCLEX Exam. Wait for your ATT or authorization to take test. Set your test date and location.

6. Take your nclex exam. :)
