According to the policy, any applications which do not have an SSN will be rejected and returned to the applicant or agency.

As for other states, you'd either need to check the requirements of each state BON or use a professional NCLEX application center.

The new rule is for foreign nurse applicants who does not have Social Security Number (SSN). If you are in doubt and have a lot of questions then I suggest that you call CA BON so that you will get a first hand information.

Good luck.

Hi all,

I just read the news in CABON on their website, that's why i wonder is it a new regulation or not, so I check it here, and i know it's true.

i'm just wondering about those who already get their att but haven't take the nclex exam yet? are they affected with this regulation als0?

and also for my case, where i have an ongoing application since last year, but i still need to submit some docs, am i affected with this regulation?

I would be grateful if anyone can give me any information regarding this

thank u ^_^

If your application was received by California before the April 26th enforcement decision then you will be handled according to the previous methods.

That is correct. So focus on your review and prepare yourself well so that you can pass in one take. I hope you have chosen a quality review center, can I ask where you are reviewing?

I suggest you check out the state BON website. I think you will find many states require CGFNS CES and some may use another type of evaluation
