the texas bne site has an email contact link, try asking there. i have no clue as to the answer as all our paperwork was done for us through school. even then out of state and country is probably very different. if no help let me know and i can phone them for answer.
i saw you listed as from beirut and want to help. i have a dear friend from there haven't heard from in two weeks now and worried the bombs got him. he lived in southern section.
i don't get to check in here often so you can email me if you need to,

If you are a foreign nurse coming into the U.S. I would definately suggest taking a review course for the NCLEX. Kaplan has a really good one for international nurses.
I would go to the National council's web site and give them a call. I know you have to go through CGFNS and submit your school transcripts. Then you can get permission to take the test. Do not submit your request for a test date until you are ready though because you only have 3 months to take the exam after you get approval.
The whole process takes about a month I think.
