Welcome

You could try contacting hospitals in the area you want to live and apply for your temp work permit and sit CRNE one you are out here but probably looking at Feb sitting. Passing NCLEX will not do anything as that is for the US and CRNE is for Canada and they are totally different

Hi,

Pl, guide me, I have to appear for CRNE on October 8, 2008 and I have applied for the visa for writing CRNE but it was declined by Canadian Embassy, Chandigarh, India. Pl, guide me how can I get visa for writing the CRNE. I don't know Why Canadian embassy is denying visa despite the fact that I am eligible as per CRNBC eligibillity criteria and there is a shortage of Nurses in Canada. Pl, help me.

You need to find out why they denied your visitor visa and then go from there and find out if it was specific only to the visitor visa, or if it will also apply to any other type of visa. Any other visa is also going to be issued by that same office to you.

Immigration and licensure are two very different things in each country.

Best of luck to you.

Stummbled upon your posting, and i am curious if you have found out why they have denied your access to canada to write the Canadian exam, have you had any luck dealing eith them since?

The visa could have been denied for any number of reasons. The lower mainland of BC has a high population of Indians from the Punjab and they have lots of relatives come to "visit" and "forget to go home".

Could be due to insufficient funds for the stay or the government just doesn't think the OP will return home after writing the exam.

i guess your best option now is to look for an employer who will sponsor you to apply for a temporary work permit.In as far as i know you can apply for an interim permit for you to take the exam, and you'll still need an employer for this. I actually wonder how you got your temporary work permit without an employer.

Member hasn't said they have a TWP just that they have been refused a tourist visa and have a temporary (Supervised) registration

Thanks for the correction silverdragon102. I might have get it all mixed up. perhaps what i meant was temporary (Supervised) registration.
