I did. It's easier and cheaper to register there than in other province.

What's strange with the comment? People here should realize that what works with one does not work with the other. There are different strokes in different folks. Stop ambushing them with your "strange Comment".

oh, sorry 5cats if you don't like my comment. THough I never been to NS, I've researched about the place before I planned to register there.

The above comment is just one of the good reason why I want to work there.

What you have to remember when registering with a province if you move to another province afterwards you still have to meet their requirements and spend more money. It is better to research where you want to live in Canada and apply to that college of RN from the beginning not go to the province because it is cheaper or requirements are different and then look at another province after you sit and pass CRNE

as mentioned above, THAT IS JUST ONE of the GOOD reason why I registered in NS. As mentioned again, I researched about the province and asked others on their experience there.

Your right silverdragon, it is better to research where you want to live in Canada and I did that, thank you. No need to keep the fire burning guys. Whatever comment I wrote is my own opinion and everyone is entitled to their own opinion, right? Thank you for all your comments. ;)

Yes research is the key

We love it here and applying for PR in the next week or so. Live just over 5 mins from the beach and an hour from the next province. Snow falls just like I remember back in the UK when i was a child but hasn't happened for many years. Yes there are some things to get used to but for us it was worth it.

I'm done already. I already received my eligibility since July 31. It took a month before they had their decision because I just sent everything through snail mail.
