Nclexrn

Published

Hello i have a huge problem and i need some help like advices concerning my nclex-rn application. I'm reviewing in #### they promise to assist me all the way in my nclexrn application in texas, so no doubt i trusted them because of course they are known review center. So i enrolled in the center have them help me with my processing.

My first choice was Nevada they convinced me to take texas instead because its alot easier, so i switch

My status: i graduated last march 2011, i just got my licensed recently like this january 2016. So the past five yrs im not doing anything relating to nursing.

My filling;

(I just followed the instructions from the review center)

At first i payed the 2 step pearson vue which is 200$---texas state(supposedly the last step)

Second they got me send 3 application forms with the 100$

Third i payed my cgfns 350$ already

Fourth i ask for fingerprinting forms

Later on i received a letter from texas B0N im so excited coz i thought thats the fingerprinting forms but thats about"i'm not eligible to take my nclex-rn" (i was really upset until now) in the review centers instructions is to check and answer the forms like this this and this so it Turns out not the correct ones. I found out myself by searching alone im not eligible to take the texas nclexrn because of my status graduated 5 years ago not working any nursing field in the bracket of 4yrs which is the required yrs. Im really pissed knowing that the whole time the review center dont know anything they always accepts student, helping the students to decide not knowing if the students are eligible to take the exam thats why i enrolled in review center for my processing to be alot easier and i dont know how it works but sadly its more worst that i thought, help! i payed everything its nonrefundable. Limit of a year only since the time i registered and payed the said requirements and i dont know what to do... please i need help with everything.

SO whats gonna happen of the money i paid in cgfns and pearson vue can they change state to where i wanna take it?

Because 100$ application is already put into waste.

IEN = internationally educated nurse

you can pay a fee to CGFNS to transfer your report to another state. But if you haven't worked as a nurse in >5 years what is the incentive for an employer to consider sponsoring you? The wait for those born in the Philippines is >5 years due to retrogression. There is a fee to Pearson to change BoN. You should not have paid Pearson until your application was accepted by the state. Your registration with Pearson does expire

YES, Im not working 5yrs before as a nurse because of family business but now im currently working as a nurse and im almost a year.

About my pearson vue and the rest i payed it because the review center i enrolled instruct me to do it im just following them, trusting them.

Thank you for the reply

Im gonna try to search what state im eligible to take, if you can suggest one i would really appreciate it. GOD bless

Your agency needs to refrains from getting people to pay Pearsonvue until eligibility is given by the BON because Pearsonvue is only valid for 12 months and we see many times IENS having issues then loose their money with Pearsonvue because time expires

NY state requires a different report (CVS) for a different fee.. CVS takes about 6 months to process.

No state will declare you eligible until you apply and submit credentials. Where does the agency plan on placing you to live and work? Are they sponsoring your visa as its nearly a decade backlog
