A new FNP is a new FNP regardless of prior experience as a foreign physician. That's a common finding on this website even more so for an experienced RN (think 10 years at the bedside in a comparable specialty) who then come to find out that their experience doesn't qualify them for a higher starting salary.
Expect to start at 100-120K/year. You might have wiggle room but hiring employers have a dime a dozen applicants who will take a lower salary for the experience to move on to better pastures after a year.
One must meet Minnesota BON NP requirments including be currently certified by a national certifying body recognized by the board in the APRN role; must practice for at least 2,080 hours, within the context of a collaborative agreement, within a hospital or integrated clinical setting.
Salary.com lists MN NP pay range typically falls between $118,019 and $138,173.
Best wishes in transitioning into this role.

Hi guys. I am in my last semester of NP school at united states university. My specialty is FNP. So what kind of pay should I expect as starting in the state of Minnesota? I have 2 years of RN experience. I am a foreign medical doctor with 9 years of experience in urgent cares, in hospital and outpatients.
