What status do you have to stay in the US? If student then you may have restrictions on where you can work but a lot will depend on how long you have been in the US. If already registered with Vermont then better to stay with them just apply to resit the exam.

Thanks so much.I was working with an agent who registered me for the exam.they recruite international nurses.But they said i cant continue in the recritement program since i have been off nursing job for more than 6months.Thats why I want to do it on my own.I still have 2years to be here for my masters program.Do you think I should try califonia on my own?

Even if you have a application by a agency there is still record of you and you should be able to resit with Vermont.

Still haven't said what your status is and whether you are allowed to work or not? Remember on a student visa there are restrictions on working

Thanks i have a student visa and know am not allowed to work but with the nclex I know by status will change.I have a friend that took the exam in different states and she took it twice

I don't understand your last comment, NCLEX is NCLEX no matter where you take it. Just email Vermont and let them know that you're not represented by an agency anymore and are an individual applicant and then reapply to resit NCLEX. You obviously will have to pay the reapplication fee on your own.

And about your status, why do you think your status will change when you pass NCLEX? Student visa is still a student visa, if you're not allowed to work that's it. Doesn't matter what skills you've got, so I'm not sure where are you heading to?

Your status will not change if you get issued a license in the US. To be able to change status you need to find employer and either get a work visa or immigrant visa and for immigrant visa visas need to be current and at the moment that isn't the case. Retrogression has been ongoing for several years and no end in sight
