Hi everyone, I am new in this website but I am constantly reading topics thru google in this website. Very informative. Now I am the one needed your ideas and advices. I am currently legally live here in the US on H4 visa. I was on L2 visa, took and passed my nclex 0n 2008 and I managed to work as an RN in a hospital here in Dallas, TX. We are Canadian citizens. We were not granted for green card and I lost my working permit when my husband company change his visa to H1B just last year. Now as H4 visa holder I cannot work. My Hospital does not sponsor employee anymore. I was refused for TN visa at the border in Toronto airport for no visa screen. I am wondering, how long it takes the process for visa screen. I finished my BSN program in Philippines. I have my credentials evaluated by International Education Research Foundation, INc. (IERF) for equivalency. I did refresher course in Toronto, Canada for Med-Surg Nurse and earned a license as a registered nurse. Is there any exceptions for Visa screen? Is my IERF evaluation and nclex certificate enough to apply again for TN visa? PLEASE help.
